Condos across the street from my office building near the shores of Lake Ontario ....

One of Canada's sporting Shrines ....


The world's tallest free-standing structure ....

Lots of office skyscrapers ....

Appropriate Friday afternoon "political messages" ....

Blends of old and new architecture ....

The flagship store for Canada's Oldest company, established in the 1600's


Dundas Square, where lots of events take place, including a recent soccer (football) event ....

The original Hard Rock Cafe. Also home to Toronto's classic rock station Q107 ....

The Ryerson University campus ....


A church a block away from home (we're getting close now) ....

The weather has been amazing in Toronto and last Friday when I took these there wassn't any humidity in the air so things were crystal clear. This week we're still enjoying the sunshine, but with a bit of that humidity too.
