"Sunrise" Park
Photo by Laura Cooper - January 2008
A short distance east of Avenue Road south off St. Clair Avenue West is Foxbar Road. Just after you enter Foxbar from St. Clair, you will see the back of Bradgate Arms. There, you will see this parkette behind some tall fir trees. On the parkette's third level is a plaque. Here's what it says:
While living in the nearby Bradgate Arms, young Ernest Seitz (1892-1978) completed his now famous song "The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise". In 1919, words were added by Gene Lockhart of London, Ontario. "Sunrise" Park was dedicated by Mrs. Ernest Seitz on June 20, 1984 in the city of Toronto's Sesqui Centennial Year.
