I am fairly certain those photos are all Rick Cordeiro's. Not sure if he is on this forum or not.

I think he used to come on the forum, but hasn't been here in a while. not sure if he's even still in Hamilton.

He's done some tremendous work writing about Hamilton on Wikipedia.

He used to post as Boomtown Hamilton but he hasn't posted since he moved to Toronto for work. I rarely agreed with him on his vision for the city, but there's no doubt that he is a huge loss to the city. His wikipedia pages are a huge labour of love, and do far more to promote this city than Ecklund's waterfall campaign, AFAIC. And unlike Ecklund, he didn't do it for any personal gain.

Thanks again, Rick!
