Hey fly... I was thinking of you when I took the shot. The last one was too far away.
This morning I took a different route to work and had a chance to stand in front of one of my favourite buildings... The New Broadview Hotel. It is currently home to Jilly's, one of the more seedier strip joints in town.
The building, however, is better looking than the women inside. I wish I had several million dollars so I could buy the place. It would make an amazing boutique hotel/nightclub... The area in which it is located is poised to be the next "cool" area of town. All the right elements are bubbling under the surface - art galleries, some warehouse/loft conversions, half decent cafes and a concert hall that has seen better days... All it will take to make it cool is one anchor and I know this place could be it... for now, it does just the opposite. (I will try to take more of it later, I had to jump on my streetcar so I couldn't do it this morning).
