The distance you mentioned is about 3000 feet. Toronto's waterfront spans over 25 miles. And for the most part it is beautiful, in my opinion.

These places are designed for and receive a ton of foot traffic - the ACC and Union Station, specifically. It's somewhat odd that the area immediately surrounding isn't very pedestrian-friendly.
