not an entrance so much, but it is in a park.

james t kirk · 02-13-2006, 04:12 PM

Is that the famous Golden Cedar that some nut bar killed a few years back?

fresnelly · 02-13-2006, 04:46 PM

Is it in Stanley Park, Vancouver?

right spot, but what's it called?

Leto · 02-13-2006, 08:33 PM

Lumberman's Arch in Stanley Park?:

Lumbermen's Arch, a log archway, is at Km 3 (Mi 2) of the drive. There's a picnic area, a snack bar, and a small beach here. The Children's Water Park, across the road, is a big draw throughout the summer. Cyclists and walkers can turn off here for a shortcut back to the aquarium, the Miniature Railway and Children's Farmyard, and the park entrance.

Leto · 02-14-2006, 12:46 PM

okay:

Janey · 02-15-2006, 07:02 AM

Is that in Victoria? It looks like a fancy BC building

fresnelly · 02-15-2006, 07:14 AM

Tsk, tsk, Janey.

This is St. Lawrence Hall in Toronto, at King St E. and Jarvis.

Quote:

Built in 1850 to serve as the City's public meeting place, the Hall has over the years hosted numerous memorable events. Jenny Lind, the Swedish Nightingale, sang to packed houses here in 1851. Ten years later, Tom Thumb attracted scores of fascinated spectators.

Restored in 1967 as the City of Toronto's Centennial project, the St. Lawrence Hall continues as a site for social and business functions, large and small. St. Lawrence Hall is spacious enough to handle large conferences and meetings, yet intimate enough to hold a small gathering. The complex has a history of drawing people to it for a wide variety of reasons. Today the Hall is the facility of choice for the film industry, serving as a staging ground for TV series, movie sets and music videos.

I may not get to a computer until this evening, so post away if you think know this one:

Leto · 02-15-2006, 08:26 PM

Louisberg?

Charlatan · 02-16-2006, 04:28 AM

Doesn't look like Louisberg... all the pictures I was looking at don't have that distinctive brick structure.

fresnelly · 02-16-2006, 06:18 AM

Not Louisberg, but definately a Fort.

Hint: It's in Upper Canada.

Charlatan · 02-16-2006, 06:36 AM

Fort Mississauga in Niagara-on-the-Lake...

fresnelly · 02-16-2006, 06:58 AM

That's the one; unattended and sitting in the middle of a golf course, at the edge of the water.

isnt this that church on the east side of Broadview, going north from the jail? Opposite from the park

Charlatan · 02-16-2006, 01:12 PM

BigBen · 02-16-2006, 02:34 PM

I renew my protest that this thread is elitist and very "Charlatan Geographic" centered.

I would like to invite people to my thread (which I will be creating shortly) called "Where am I .... In Saskatchewan?"

Charlatan · 02-16-2006, 03:35 PM

Hey! Who was it that posted pictures of your hometown... Winnipeg?

Lucifer · 02-16-2006, 05:35 PM

Yeah, I'll be starting "where am I in Newfoundland?"

fresnelly · 02-16-2006, 05:50 PM

I'll be starting "Where are my keys in...?

cellophanedeity · 02-16-2006, 08:29 PM

"Where am I in places that cello spends time in?"

What a boring thread that would be!

Leto · 02-16-2006, 08:32 PM

noooo cello! that wouldn't be boring at all... post some!

here's an inside shot:

aberkok · 02-16-2006, 09:19 PM

St. Lawrence Market.

Leto · 02-17-2006, 03:17 AM

Game on Aberkok... here's an outside view:

BigBen · 02-17-2006, 10:22 AM

Is that the St. Laurence Market?

aberkok · 02-17-2006, 04:18 PM

Since I've just about had it with my photi being guessed in about two seconds, I've decided to up the challenge:

...alright just kidding...where am I standing? What am I looking at?:

Charlatan · 02-17-2006, 04:38 PM

That has to be under the Marquee at the Paradise Cinema.

It was a porn house just before it became part of the Festival Cinemas chain. Friends of mine cleaned it out. They found a "room" at the back where the working ladies would help out the customers. They described the smell of the place as "funky."

The last time I was there was back in the 90s with a bunch of staff from the Bloor Cinema (where I was working at the time). We were there to see Polyester and we had dropped some sweet acid. It was the start of one of the oddest evenings I think I ever spent and included madness, blowing snow and a nuclear reactor.

aberkok · 02-17-2006, 08:28 PM

Yeah, yeah....laugh it up. I'll stump you guys yet (and by you guys, I really mean Charlatan). I knew I shouldn't have stood under the Paradise marquee.

Gaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyuuuummmmmmmmm ON!

Charlatan · 02-18-2006, 04:57 AM

Ok... next.

Location and name of the building.

james t kirk · 02-18-2006, 10:01 AM

Chateau Laurier Ottawa?

Charlatan · 02-18-2006, 10:06 AM

No. Not in Ottawa.

fresnelly · 02-18-2006, 10:11 AM

Hotel MacDonald in Edmonton?

Bossnass · 02-18-2006, 10:55 AM

I can't say 100%, but I'm pretty sure that it isn't the hotel mac.

fresnelly · 02-18-2006, 11:11 AM

Yeah, I don't think the roof is quite right. Sure is similar though.

Bossnass · 02-18-2006, 11:44 AM

Well then I'd venture that its another fairmont property, but I have found a picture to match.
