20240909. What an interesting building near Yonge and St. Clair! The sign above the door is missing, the entrance canopy is singular, the facade is unique, you can see the brick that lies beneath and the word “senior’s” appears in an interesting font with apostrophe. I put my watermark by the word senior’s as I suddenly feel an affinity for them.

20240906. The Don Valley where the Ontario Line Bridge will cross into Thorncliffe. The exposed hill is where I imagine bridge construction will be focused and where a support pier will be built.
