Bay Street luggage storage

About Bay Street 

If the name Bay Street makes you think about New York’s famous Financial District, that’s for good reason. Often touted as the “Wall Street of Canada,” the name Bay Street actually refers to many things; at once, it refers to the actual street that runs through most of Downtown Toronto, as well as Canada’s financial services industry. As you might’ve expected, individuals who are looking to buy stocks, invest in businesses, or simply gained a better understanding of Canada’s Financial Sector often travel here in person.

However, Bay Street doesn’t operate on an “all work, but no play” philosophy. On the contrary, Bay Street has plenty of tourist attractions and landmarks to keep visitors occupied. Take venues like the Sutton Place Hotel or the College Park shopping mall, for example – you’re sure to have a great time at either venue, even if you have come to Bay Street to do business. Overall, Bay Street is a great place to visit, especially if you have a keen interest in finance. If you’ve been to Wall Street, we believe that you’ll enjoy your trip to Bay Street even more.

The Royal Ontario Museum is one of the most popular educational centers in all of Canada, let alone Toronto.

As of 2020, the museum is looking to host a special Winnie the Pooh exhibit. 

If you’d like to learn more about the history of Canada and Toronto, you have to visit the Royal Ontario Museum. Tickets prices vary, depending on a visitor’s age and military status. The museum is also located near one of our Bounce partners. A major plus, as the museum has very strict luggage policies.

Luggage Storage Near the Toronto Police Museum and Discovery Centre

As you might expect, the Toronto Police Museum and Discovery Centre is a tribute to the women and men who’ve served in law enforcement. Police cars and pieces of equipment from multiple periods can all be found here. Tours are also held on certain days, especially around national holidays. 

Unlike many other museums, the Toronto Police Museum is funded by donations and the Toronto Police Service. This means that you won’t have to pay for a ticket to visit. However, if you're able to, consider donating to support the museum and the TPS. The Toronto Police Museum and Discovery Centre is located on 40 College Street. Use Bounce to store your things before you visit.

Luggage Storage Near the Hockey Hall of Fame

We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention the Hockey Hall of Fame. This iconic Canadian landmark is one of Toronto’s most popular attractions. Hockey fans from all around the globe visit the Hockey Hall of Fame all through the year, and have done so since the Hall was first built in 1943.

If you’re a die-hard hockey fan, then the Hall is likely already on your list of places to visit. However, even if you don’t know the first things about Hockey, we encourage you to stop by. In many ways, the Hall is as much a piece of Canadian culture as Hockey, poutine, and beavers. When you visit Bay Street, please do yourself a favor and visit the Hall. It’s located on 30 Yonge St.
