Of all the years of walking past that building , I never knew it was a parking lot. I was kinda hoping you had a jetpac but for taking photo's wouldn't you need a hoverpac?

An interesting roof-line look of older and newer Toronto...
Android: I found this picture interesting because of the contrast of the old
and new architecture on these buildings roof lines - I recognize Royal Bank
as the newer building and the Royal York Hotel's older copper or bronze-based
roof as the older one-a Toronto classic...LI MIKE

College looking west from Yonge
Android: Good picture of the intersection of Yonge/College looking W- the black/white makes it look older but the autos and
the Yonge St. overhead sign date it as recent...I remember the building containing the Ontario Motor League/CAA and I never
realized that those squares hid a parking garage area remembering all the times I had walked past that point...a good street
vantage point as I now know...LI MIKE

A Perfect way to advertise-on a Ontario vanity license plate!
Android: I found this picture interesting because the web address fits perfectly on
a Ontario 8-character vanity license plate - a neat way to advertise...
As a license plate collector I tend to notice these plates more often and I really
like seeing them when they are clever - like this one is...
The trouble to me is Ontario's high price to obtain vanity plates-$251.65 for a plate that has
from 2 to 8 characters...I feel that with a more reasonable price there would be more out there...
New York has allowed 8 character vanity plates since 1978 and even though they
charge extra fees per year they have been popular over time...They have been made with a flat
silkscreening process since November 1995 (Liberty plate issue) but I feel that embossed plates
appear better and also will hold up better over time...The current fees for NY vanity plates is:
Initial Cost: $60 and $31.25 extra yearly - that fee also covers non-personalized Custom Plates
that NY issues...Personalized Custom Plates cost $91.25 initially and $62.50 extra yearly...
NY Custom Plates are those that include Sports,Regional,Military,NASCAR and other types...
There are not many North American jursdictions that allow 8 character vanity plates...
West Virginia and North Carolina are the only other US jurisdictions that also allow this...
Ontario is the only one in Canada and on a related matter Quebec and Newfoundland & Labrador
are the only provinces that still does not have vanity plates...LI MIKE

Android: If it was not for the waste receptacle on the left front this picture could easily be dated decades ago perhaps...
The street view visible thru the columns does not directly give away a recent date...LI MIKE
