Trussed up baby.

Has this been shown before here at UT? If so, forgive me.



Bertmount Avenue.

The householder here; a lady, was quite nice. She was outside doing maintenance on this, um, state of affairs. I asked permission to take a picture. She said no one ever asks; and obviously gave me permission.

cameras everywhere?

I can't make out that sign on the fence.
Is it a warning of TV surveillance?

Yessir, it says: "Closed Circuit Television".

Using every square metre of the city

This reminds me of Tokyo. Must be the mixture of concrete and greenery.

More neat stuff in My Toronto...

Android-11/9 Bathurst Bridge looking E towards Downtown-a interesting pic before the coming bridge renovation...
11/10 Broadview Hotel-an old classic...note the "cobra-style" light bracket above the traffic light-I remember that Toronto began installing these in the 80s-quite different from the older fancy light brackets...
Those boxing gloves at Roncevalles/Dundas make me think about the phrase
"Put'em up!" - made for a future boxing giant perhaps...
11/11 That pic of the Gooderham Flatiron Building by Khris at night is quite neat...
11/11 Wave Deck-imaging teenagers doing bicycle stunts on that...when I was that age it would have been tempting...
Gardiner Expressway overpass close to building-I noticed the column renovation - where is this location?
11/11 Those pics Mustapha took of the doll/character collection at that Bertmount Avenue house reminds me for some reason of the Beatles album cover of the "Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" LP-how many characters can YOU name? The second pic makes me think "So THAT is where the dancing baby from the 'Ally McBeal' show ended up...with a kidnapped blue M&M mind you!!!" LI MIKE

Oh wow, I really wanna see this live. Is that a recent picture? I mean, does the house still look like that?

It's recent Elli, I took it yesterday. On Bertmount just north of Queen.

I really wonder what the neighbors must think and/or feel about that. I'd also like to know how it impacts property values in the area.

The lighting looks amazing! I wiish there was more of it around town.

 

[CityPlaceN1]

That is a great shot.

The cars whipping by the windows must be interesting.

The building in the picture is actually a parking garage (so probably not too many residents to admire the view):

Of course there are still plenty of condos close (but not quite that close) to the Gardiner along to the west.

I just wanted to be sure that the night photo of the Flatiron Building is credited to Sam Javanrouh, a fantastic Toronto photographer.

He posts a different photo each day at: http://wvs.topleftpixel.com/
