the Flatiron at the corner of Wellington, Church and Front

This building, technically called the Gooderham building, is just SO cool... it sits on a Y intersection and is yummy from just about any angle...

here is a link to the map, so you can see more clearly what the intersection looks like...

I was so frustrated by the fact that altho' the main subject is level, the building in the back is canted... but in looking at other photos on google, they seem to suffer from the same thing, so it's nice to know it isn't just me :)

Thank you all so VERY much in all the nice comments and favs on my "scramble" images... there was actually a brief moment when all 3 were on the pp at the same time!
Great b&w

No worries about the angled bank. It doesn't detract from this photo. I love flatiron-type buildings. You've captured this one well. :-)

That's a great looking building. I guess the flats might be quite thin...

Love it! I used to work at C'est What...a very familiar building beautifully captured.

very cool, and love the way you are not afraid to move away from a standard crop - you rebel you ;-) Fav by the way
