At the same time, polo shirts with the super sized crest overflowed the discount bins at Zellers once the season ended. It's just some people past the age of 25. No need to feel all high and mighty because you aren't one to plaster yourself with logos. You are far from being original.
Can one be original while tagged with a mass-produced consumer logo? Sounds like a triumph of marketing to me.

There's 6 billion plus people. No one is being that original. Those that seek out corporate marking to wear or refuse to wear have more in common than those that just wear what they like and/or looks good.
Im suprised the site wasnt sold and/or redeveloped into a mixed use/condo building or some sort of a student housing rental complex.
Such prime real estate for a dinky 3 storey building.
Shakes head. Makes no sense to build a residential tower directly facing the super bright, animated billboards of Dundas Square. It's a great old building. It doesn't need to be replaced or podium-ized. The owner is also going to make a fortune without spending a 500 million plus dimes or lifting a finger on leasing the rooftop to the 3rd party advertiser.
You're making me hungry thinking of Blaze Pizza. I could see a tower rise here someday--doesn't have to be all glass and black out blinds are very effective--I use them to block all the glazing.
If they want to they can make the most awesome LED Experience, they have the most square footage on the Dundas facing side of the mall. (Atrium has some space, as well as the Eaton Center)
Almost all covered in boring static ads, right now.
Looking forward to the Samsung Store at the Eaton Center. That store along with the Shoppers Drug Mart will light up the square.

Yep, the electronic sign is so tiny now. It's the same media company putting up this new sign over the Hard Rock Cafe too. (to compete with another media company that owns the two towers across the street)
The Hard Rock was so iconic on that street corner for so long that it seems absolutely plebeian that the ultimate fate for this property is to become a Shoppers Drug Mart..........

Please, it's a FLAGSHIP Shoppers Drug Mart! For all your flagship health and beauty needs.

Iconic? Naw. The first New York location may have reached that status briefly in the mid 1980s.
Iconic maybe in the sense it was the first one in N.A. but isn't it basically just a Planet Hollywood for music? There are way more worthy music venues with real iconic status in Toronto -the Horseshoe, Massey Hall etc. Hard Rock was just a tourist trap that reminds us the music industry is but another corporate dragnet.
I've never been to the one in T.O. (ran out on my bill in the New Orleans one once) but frankly Rockwell Jeans meant more to me than Hard Rock ever did and that's long dead and will probably never be remembered.
