I don't know about rare, I've seen many of them in old Toronto, South of the Danforth. Does anyone make replicas of these signs?

Murphy's law at work, I'm looking for Vol 1 of Construction, and guess which one isn't posted :(

What I've always wondered is how this little Bayview Bridge survived Hurricane Hazel.

I still think Loblaws should keep a couple of foam hockey sticks hanging from that wood post. Who wouldn't want to be photographed facing off at centre ice at the Gardens? :D

It's the size of the devastated area that always gets me. Putting it into modern terms, it's everything on Bay between the Stock Exchange and the railway tracks, and everything on Front Between the Hockey Hall of Fame and the Royal York. If it happened today, the list of lost buildings would...
