Looking towards the southwest corner of Bellair St and Critchley Ln, just north of Bloor St W in the Yorkville neighbourhood of Toronto.
Once home to 4D’s Diner and later Flo’s Diner, the restaurant was demolished in the early 2000s to make way for the present-day mixed-use building. On Flo’s last day at that location in April 2000, the staff celebrated by dressing in 1950s clothing to thank their customers. They relocated to the 2nd floor of 70 Yorkville Ave. Flo’s closed in March 2024.
