Nice bike, you could sell that here for an easy $150.

Queens Park old Skyline focal point. By me.

^ Fun fact: The tower of Whitney Block is unoccupied (and has been since the 60's) because it is deemed a fire hazard with only one staircase.

A shame, because it really is fantastic:

Indeed, it's such a waste it sits empty.

The_Architect · #**2007** Posted **Aug 10, 2012, 1:04 PM**

I've always wondered, why don't they put a fire escape on the back side of the tower? It would ugly up one side but that way the tower would actually be used!

This looks so much like a bigger, denser area in Winnipeg (downtown looking into west end) that its almost scary...like looking 80 years into the future or something

1ajs, funny the date you uploaded that first picture of Calgary, I was walking down that same bridge!

here's an awesome (old) shot of Winnipeg from the sky, courtesy of SignalHillHiker, permission taken from his thread in the MB/SK section

That is a great shot, but it can't be too old, as it looks like Journey to Churchill is underway in the photo.
