Some beautiful buildings, just a block from my place. This is the Yorkville Public Library.
And next to it is the lcoal firehall - a working firehall, too.
But what's that poking into the picture on the left. Is it a ....a.....
Oh No! A construction crane!
More condos!
And It Gets Worse They've already got one up! And they're not done yet.
Of course, the one I live in isn't really part of this. It is very tasteful. As slabs of conrete go.

Maybe think about joining a historical society this time? I think you'd really enjoy it and ... maybe somehow you can save some of these buildings instead of whinin' 'bout it (only kidding on that last part...) (sort of) (grin)....and you might even meet some fine ol' girl at one of the meetings - oooooh baby!
Hi, I'm Jim Arnott. For whatever reason, I've decided to create a blog. Why would someone want to read my blog? If you have any ideas, please let me know.
My shtick will be to post photos and comments using only my cell phone. Why? It's not because I'm too cheap to buy a real camera. Don't believe those rumours. It's because, well.......this is the only camera I choose to have. Yeah, that's it.
And based on this photo, maybe these low resolution babies are the way to go. Yikes!
I'm an Ontario boy living out in Calgary [who has now moved back to Ontario]. I'll be posting photos using my cell phone. We'll see how good of an idea this is after a while....

Great firehall!
You gotta show me it when I'm in town so I can photo it.
You got it, Pontiac. And you, too, Ms. Pontiac.
An old friend used to be president of the Toronto Historical Society or Association. I'll have to see if he has been preserved.
