Queen Street West, Toronto

Behind Downtown's Best Sausage is the Thomson Building (1972, WZMH Architects), which is the headquarters of Thomson Reuters (333 Bay Street around the corner is often given as the headquarters, but the company gave the building in this photo as its headquarters in a filing with the American Securities and Exchange Commission last year).

Now those are vertical lines! And I suspect that there is a lot more to it than you show - both to get a strong picture and maybe not being able to back up far enough to get a duller one of the whole building?

Thanks, Bob. Yes, if I had backed up I would have had to show some sky, which would have made the buiildng look less like a monolith.
