Good call on the airport.
Not Dorval.

Is that Mirabel?

It also reminds me of vancouver airport..... is it?

Neither Mirabel or Vancouver

London International Airport, Ontario

London has an international airport?

If any flights go to the US then its international - Hamilton airport is considered an international airport as well.

OK, My turn.

Lions Gate, taken from the seawall.

Or maybe the bridge from Windsor to Detroit?

Neither is correct.

Right you are.
That is actually the newly re-built airport.

oh look...........the underside of a bridge.

DINGDINGDING - you got it!

which bridge though?

Angus L. Macdonald Bridge?

Is it the Thosand Islands Bridge?

The proper name for the bridge I believe is the Hill Island bridge, but Sticky got it.

Dammit. Mine are apparently too easy!


Game on Sticky

Next:
I don't know if this is going to be easy or not.

Isn't that where Gerald Bull did all his work?

He had a lab in Quebec where he did his ballistics / aerospace work.

Aerospace Manufacturing Technology Centre in Montreal?

Nope


and nope

I have no idea :P

stymied here.

Is it the Canadian Space Agency, John H. Chapman Space Centre in St. Hubert, Quebec?

No, but you are on the right track.

looks like a toughy....

OK, another hint

There is a museum there and a camp

There is something like that in Trenton?

It is not Trenton. The hints are

hint 1
hint 2

Space Camp Canada - Laval, Quebec

Should I get this right, I won't be able to post for a while...so I grant my turn to the first taker.

You are right aberkok... it is the space camp in Laval. I just browsed the site. Very cool.

Lake Sicamous?

Shuswap Lake?

nope, not a lake.

I think we need hints.

i agree. It's not something that stands out. Is it on a river? the ocean? Maybe it's an ocean front casino near Skagway...

I believe that this is the "McDonald's Barge" that floated on the north side of False Creek during Expo 86. I'm not sure where it is here, buit it looks like it might be around Mission BC.

splck is gone for the weekend and yes that is the Mcbarge in False creek.


game on coltrane

way to go Coltrane...


**edit:

Coltrane_fan is busy at the moment, and has asked me to post for him. Sooo... in keeping with the "underside of bridges" theme, here is a give-away:

game on coltrane. (is this a recursive round?)

Don't need the species, but the name of the place it's honouring / guarding.

Manning Park

game on Splck.
Apparently, UBC Engineers stole one of these using chainsaws etc.
quite the scandal.

Ok, next up....

Race Rocks Lighthouse - Off the southern tip of Vancouver Island, about 10 miles southwest of Victoria.

Excellent!

Thats in Shediac, New Brunswick

You sir, are correct! Game on.

That is in a new Chrysler (I think) commercial that has been playing on TV recently.

I'm gonna be creative and try for a toughie, but I bet you guys get it within ten minutes cause i'm too damn predictable.

Hint:-
This is a very famous Canadian Course

Glen Abby in Oakville? (former longtime home of the Canadian Open)

Game on fresnelly

Sweet! What would be another famous Canadian Golf course?

Next up, a bit of Toronto obscuria:

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...s/IMG_4517.jpg

Queen & Gladstone in Toronto?

Game on Leto!

The stone refers to the Rail bridge that Crosses Queen between Dufferin and Gladstone, rather than the ill-fated Queen underground line.

The Inscription reads

R.J. Fleming, Mayor
E.H. Keating, City Engineer
W.F. Grant & Co.
Hamilton Bridge Wks Co. Contractors

You'll find it in this picture sitting in the upper right at rail level.
http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...s/IMG_4518.jpg

Cool! I originally thought perhaps the Toronto Archives, but the stonework made me re-assess the guess. I recall driving through that underpass quite often, and had to go to a map program to make sure it was on Queen...

Here's the next one:

http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...0/34cb3cb9.jpg

The word "subway" in railway bridge terminology refers to a rail over road type bridge actually.

Again, in railway bridge terminology, when you have road over track, the bridge will be referred to as an "Overhead"

As opposed to the more common highway terminology of over pass and under pass.

For example, north of Dupont, along the CPR's North Toronto subdivision, you have the Christie Street Subway, the Shaw Street Subway, the Ossington Avenue Subway, etc. etc.

Bit of railway trivia for you.

You can always get some screwed up looks when you refer to railway bridges and call them "subways". Though, amazingly, I have heard Joe Q. Public correctly refer to them as subways as well.

And another bit of info you might find interesting, the Queen Street Subway is scheduled to be majorly reworked. They are going to eliminate "the Dufferin Street Jog" which is where one must turn right on Queen, left on Gladstone, then right on Dufferin in order to go north continuously on Dufferin.

I only hope they don't wreck the stone work. It's an amazing example of fine masonry work, as is the King Street Subway to the south on the same lines.

GO Transit now owns part of that bridge and a large part of it is not utilized.

I believe you have the CPR Galt Subdivision (owned by GO Transit now) and the CNR Weston and Newmarket Subdivisions on there.

Leto:

I'm pretty sure that sculpture is on the north side of Bloor St. E. between Jarvis and Yonge, infront of a big Insurance corp. tower.

Game on Fresnelly, that would be beside the Manulife building ( I think it's manulife, of the golf green front lawn)

I knew those ones! ...damn.

JTK... as always, great bridge trivia. Thanks. I love the Queen Street Subway and the King Street one just south.

If they do as good a job with the Queen as they did with King, it should come out OK.

Next up:
http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ts/build45.jpg

Hmm, i drive past that area all the time and never noticed the statues, I gotta pay attention next time.

Isn't this thread great for that? Gaining new perspective on areas that we've just glossed over.


Fresnelly:

is that Chateau Laurier in Ottawa?

Not the Chateau Laurier. :)

Banff Springs Hotel?

not Banff Springs.

Le Manior Richelieu
La Malbaie, Quebec

Nope and Nope.

Hotel Mac. Edmonton

That is the coolest thing ever.

(sry was away for a while)

Chateau Lake Louise?

Bossnass takes it! Hotel Macdonald in Edmonton.

Surprisingly, there is no MacDonald's inside.

Sorry TFP Canada. Been busy with work... and it seems that I've forgotten my photobucket password.

I promise I won't name any locations I recognize until I have time to contribute in a meanful way.

I'm certain someone has a picture to post in my stead.

is that the skywalk? (to the Skydome in Toronto)

No, it is not the skywalk at skydome.

The pedestrian bridge over Hwy.11 to get to Weber's Hamburgers near Orillia, ON.

I was going to guess either the Weber's bridge or the CN tower bridge, and then I found out it's actually both!
