Gene Domagala says the Leuty Lifeguard Station "defines the Beach spirit and the Beach people." Originally called The Scarborough Beach Station, it was one of three stations built by the Toronto Harbour Commission in 1920. Today, the Leuty along with a lifeguard station that was built later on at Cherry Beach are the only two that remain. And I think it's an important reminder that there will be another day, we will get through this, the Leuty Lifeguard Station remains." Erwin Buck's photos of The Beach and the Leuty Lifeguard Station have appeared online and in shops along Queen Street East.
