on the corner of danforth and broadview

rather a busy intersection. there's a subway station behind this building and that's where the red street car was coming from. the building is a notable structure in that it has been there for so long. normally old buildings like this would have a plaque or marker at the top which shows the year in which the building was built. this one doesn't seem to have any, although it might be just hidden behind those pillars. it is nearing rush hour hence the milling people past the building. plus the students were just coming out of school.

the building is not triangular in shape -- it just looks that way.

for week 47 of the peter forsgard 52 assignments which calls for a street corner.
Fascinating building with the front that has no right angle. i like the bustle of the traffic and people.

Those are some impressive columns! I noticed the caduceus at the top of the building. Is the building now or was it previously a medical building?

Columns are always impressive and seen in so many parts of the world - neo classic. Do we love the Roman styles?

@wakelys @mcsiegle @randystreat impressive observations from all of you. I noticed the right angle, or lack of but did not notice the caduceus. There are so many interesting things to look at in this photo Vikki We have nothing like this in my tiny little town

I used that subway station and the streetcars that ran from it for years when I lived in the area. Nice to see it 😀
