It is still a very good effort.
The 1967 shot shows my current home. It is the only tall building west of Tunneys. It was still not occupied yet, that came the following year, but the photo shows the outer walls are fully constructed.
As for PdV, my dad worked in the Hunter building and moved to PdV when it opened. I couldn't tell you where the Hunter building was downtown, but it was the "upside down chocolate cake with vanilla icing". That's how knew I was looking at that building and that if I was lost when downtown shopping with my mother, (at the previous mentioned Simpsons on Sparks Street), I could find my daddy there.
