Pho in Seattle

author: Peter : Seattle, WA

While in Seattle, I had the pleasure of feasting on plenty of Pho, and really enjoyed it; somehow I managed to never get around to having any here in NYC. Apparently, Seattle's a bit famous for it, so here are an assortment of random Pho places I passed while there... Feel free to add your own, or comments about these places, as I'd like to know which places to specifically check out (or avoid?) next time I'm in

Windows

author: Elicar : Toronto, ON

Jacks's A Window With a View reminded me of my pictures of windows. Old Scotia Bank Tower boardroom window Union Station window Another Union Station window I believe this is St. James Church on Queen Soldier's Tower at University of Toronto Another window from the Soldier's Tower Spadina House window This is actually a ceiling at Queen's Park This is at Richmond and Spadina. I believe it is 401 Richmond St. This picture is actually taken from the rooftop garden. National School of Ballet Lion on the Beach at Queen Street Mt. Data Hotel, Philippines The rest are windows from the Steam Whistle Brewery.

CONDOS! I knew they were coming, but to actually see the signs there somehow made it official. The Benny Square logo Some of the original buildings still stand in the background. The signage...

Going Around the World On Danforth Avenue

author: Elicar : Toronto, ON

There was a time when Danforth Avenue was synonymous to Souvlaki and Greeks. It may still be. But Greektown is but a small portion of Danforth Avenue and the other areas are developing. Apart from the Greektown Business Improvement Association (BIA) which is from Jones to Chester, there are two other BIA's that I discovered on my walk today from Victoria Park to Broadview: Danforth Village BIA (Victoria Park to Greenwood) and Danforth BIA (Chester to Broadview). I wonder if there is another BIA from Greenwood to Jones? Danforth Avenue boasts a wide variety of restaurants offering cuisine from all over...
