flatiron

the gooderham flatiron building was built in 1892 and is one of toronto's famous landmarks. behind are the twin towers of brookfield place and the shorter building between them is the royal bank plaza from three days ago. south of the gooderham buiding is another flatiron-style building called 25 esplanade. hmmm...maybe i should get a photo of that, too.

the back of this building has made the pages of my album quite a few times:

Did you stand in the middle of the road to get this Vikki? It's an amazing building. I wish it didn't have all the wires and traffic lights.

@k1w1 - hahaha! no, not in the middle but a bit on tbe side, cars were parked to my right but i made sure there wasn't any traffic coming behind; no one to yell "car!" for me. thank you, chris. miss you and cath.

A beautiful building! I would love to live in that corner apartment. Terrific colors too! And nice POV to take in the whole building and the newer architecture behind it!

I just realized I followed your links, and didn't comment on this one. This is a very cool old building.I must photograph it.
