I'm going to be posting several more photos on this theme, so I would like to make it clear that, sketchy as some of these efforts to bring the look of the country into the city may appear. I love them all. In a city whose buildings are as blandly coloured as Toronto's, any display of colour I regard as a friendly gesture intended to make my life more enjoyable. I also find this display more enjoyable than those leafy squares in London surrounded by fences with locked gates and with barbed wire on top. That ain't nice. I also like how the shadow looks like the front end of a streetcar. There's a streetcar line about a block away, so it's as if the cars were casting their shadows a block north.
