A resident kindly provided us with a notice alerting locals to a commercial being filmed in the neighbourhood. There might be some disruption to travel and specifically parking on Carlton St. between Parliament St. and Sackville St. Untitled Films has made a generous financial contribution to the Cabbagetown Residents Association.
Be sure to look your best whilst out walking in case you finally get your big break and are discovered!
