CE: Which one? Also I guess I should specify that the text at the bottom of each photo indicates where in Montreal the truck was, not the name of the tag.

in response to Graf Trux 19: Montreal

EvilGentleman: Amazing.

in response to Changing Signal

Em: its a great show, the figures have a real presence. I'd recommend a visit - 'Space Station' is quite different to these figures but is equally impressive

in response to Anthony Gormley on the Southbank

Biff: This is St. Peter, a wonderful churh for the poor and disabled. The address is 188 Carlton, but the front door is on Bleeker Street. The bell is free standing and made from melted cannon from the war of 1812, when the original chapel was burnt in the great fire....

in response to The Saint of Bleeker Street

milton: i grew up in brooklyn and it was terrific brownsville was a great place

in response to Dangerous to Walk Around Brooklyn?

kricket: i absolutely love the plateau one...

in response to Graf Trux 19: Montreal

jeeff: ;)

in response to Co-branding Strategy

jeeff: the whole thing has evolved into a huge OMB-city clusterfuck nightmare. the city missed a deadline to challenge one of the designs, and has resorted to desperate lawsuits. most recently, the toronto fashion incubator (launching pad for many of canada's young fashion talent) was evicted to make way...

in response to 48 Abell Bites the Dust?

jeeff: wikipedia's article on the Leslie_Street_Spit hits on many interesting points about the spit (aka tommy thompson park). it's a manmade breakwater and dumping site for land dredged from the harbour and construction landfill. the area was spontaneously adopted by hundreds of species of migratory birds and other animals,...

in response to Toronto Skyline & Brick Art

livia: While I was waiting for the traffic light to get green I took a shot.

in response to Changing Signal

livia: thank you EvilGentleman but ... well .... it was a coincidence. I just took this shot in the right moment.

in response to Changing Signal

elaine: oh, and giant bugs attacking us, natch.

in response to Silvery Paste Up

elaine: is it really true we have better phones than you? mine, the nokia n80 http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n80-1347.php fyi, has TWO yes TWO cameras on it! the secondary camera is designed with teenagers in mind i think and is lower quality, but it allows you to do things like this http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=9792&l=06610&id=557556263 oh, i...

in response to Silvery Paste Up

CartLegger: Great image, crisp lines for a cameraphone--must be one of those 2MP+ fancy Euro Phones. but I am so curious as to what this is...

in response to Silvery Paste Up

elaine: nope... well here's the link to my helljay http://elaine4queen.livejournal.com/21900.html where there is one picture. i am sorry, i am so ill these days, i have no idea if or where i might have put any others. i feel bad i have been away, i do post in my helljay, but am...

in response to Sit and Reflect

elaine: silly cow? wonder if html works here...

in response to Sit and Reflect

sandie: hi there! this is fantastic, thank you Dave and others who have added photos. i started life out in Trafford Park (third street!) and most of my folks all worked at Trafford Carpets, formerly Textilose (spelling?). I just wondered if anyone had any photos of the old mill? many...

in response to Barton Power Station

Julie: I WILL live there within the week. I'm so excited! There are people... most of them are just smart enough to stay inside when it's in the 90's and humid!

in response to German Village

CE: Wow! This is one of my favourites from you Chiamattt!

in response to Oot\'n Aboot (2)

EvilGentleman: Ahhh, now I remember why I always avoided the Plateau area. Too many hippies. Since hippies hold native spirituality in the highest regard, and with my being Mohawk, I am terrified of being loved to death. Scary shit, man. Same reason I avoid the tam-tams.

in response to Mr. Popularity

EvilGentleman: The brick figures greatly remind me of Inuit Inuksuit, of which I have seen many in the Arctic.

in response to Toronto Skyline & Brick Art

aer : wish i'd known about that place when i lived there...interesting look to these photos, i like them.

in response to Elvis IS Alive

aer : well, i don't actually think it looks like darth vader, it's more like i picture darth vader living there. you know, darth's corporate headquarters. just having a bit of fun. when i was choosing a title i really didn't expect to get nitpicked about it. i'll have to go check...

in response to The Darth Vader Building

aer : thanks for the long walk in seoul

in response to Oot\'n Aboot (2)

serlingrod: somewhere in the vicinity of Rue Marie-Anne and Rue Chambord in the Plateau, just north of Parc la Fontaine

procyon:

in response to Robert Moses Photo Collective

aer suzuki: this is a great set of shots, thanks.

in response to Toronto Skyline & Brick Art

aer suzuki: hey joey. well last fall/winter i lapsed into drawing & painting mode. then in spring my camera broke. it only sort of works now, so it's more difficult to go and do extended photo adventures. will have to either fix it or get a new one, neither of which is...

Aaron: Beautiful.
