Badlands, AB

This is not the badlands, Alberta.

I think we need a hint ....

Sudbury Ontario

and a hint you get:

Hagatha was close with the description, tiberius with the province...

(how's that for a hint?):thumbsup:

Cheltenham Badlands, Caledon Ontario?????

oh ya ! (are you a Google-master?). Game on Hagatha...

Incidentally, the Cheltenham Badlands are really intriguing. they think that cattle grazing exposed the underlying soil to rain erosion in the 19th century.

hmm...it must be an airport, but which......

or the angle is the elephant's butt....:)

It is an airport (I think this is going to be a whole new category. Not as many airports as bridges though)

I say that this is Mirabel or Montreal international airport.

It is the infamous and now defunct Mirabel Airport.

Read up on the story behind this white elephant:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montr%C...tional_Airport
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...sportlinks.png

silly question: but since there is a remote possibility that a future move might affect my life and this place will be the first thing I see, if I do move...why defunct? :paranoid:

I think that the place was too far away from Montreal to effectively replace Dorval in a convenient manner. And just at the time when Mirabel could have taken off (so to speak) and become a major usage facility, the Quebec referendum fallout of the late 1970's caused an exodus of business to Ontario. This helped in the virtual decline in usage until nowadays it is used primarily for commercial traffic such as couriers etc.

Now, off to find an intriguing picture to post.

edit: here you go:

Hint: this is not in the maritimes.

Leto,
West Montrose Covered Bridge in West Montrose Ontario?


Read the wikipedia post.
Leto nailed part of it but until recently it still could have been the Montreal airport had the Montreal, Quebec, and Canadian governments invested in it (transportation to a from). It is really not that far from Montreal (35km) and the Trudeau (Dorval) airport is prime on island property that could be used for much better purposes.

There are takls of developing Mirabel into some type of shopping, amusement, resort type place.

Are you planniing on moving to Montreal?

By the way, I posted that graphic to show the relative size of Mirabel Airport (and the airport area).

Game on Sticky... interesting that this is supposed to be the last covered bridge left in Ontario, near Waterloo...

linky: http://www.region.waterloo.on.ca/web...8!OpenDocument

looks like a chicane to me....

It does look like a chicane

Is it Dunnville Ontario?

Gilles Villeneuve Circuit?

PhilMcGroin is correct.
It is Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal. This is where the Canadian Grand Prix is held.

ok, here's one, I hope it's not too weird for everyone...

http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i2...TFPcanada1.jpg

Is it somewhere in the Laurentians?

what does the sign say?
"Now entering .......world"

hint: Sign says "now entering Waldy World"
cheers
Phil

Near Revelstoke British Columbia?

You're in the ballpark. What I'd like is the name of the Mountain that features "Waldy World".

cheers
Phil

Boulder Mountain

You nailed it Leto, game on.
Phil

Phew. so Phil, Other than sleeping in my Chevette on the outskirts of Revelstoke, I have no idea about the area. What is the significance of Boulder Mountain? (my google skills only took me so far...)

Now, off to find a picture.

edit. Okay try this one on for size. is it obscure? I think not.

http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...000/guess5.jpg

thats a pretty damn cool staircase. No clue where it is though :)

Are those the stairs behind the Museum of Civilization in Hull?

They are not behind the Museum of Civilisation. In fact, they are not in either Quebec or Ontario.

[QUOTE=Leto]Phew. so Phil, Other than sleeping in my Chevette on the outskirts of Revelstoke, I have no idea about the area. What is the significance of Boulder Mountain? (my google skills only took me so far...)


Yo Leto,

Revelstoke is the snowmobiling capital of Canada, and Boulder Mountain is by far it's most travelled sledding area. We get out there several times a year!

cheers,
Phil

The Courthouse in Downtown Vancouver?

It does remind me of DaVinci's Inquest, you may be right.

Weeellll... OK, the provincial courts are connected to Robson Square, and I was looking for Robson Square in Vancouver.

linky: http://www.greatbuildings.com/buildi...on_Square.html

But yes, Game on Fresnelly!

Hot damn! I don't remember that staircase from the few times I've been in Vancouver, but It just felt right.

Next up:

Nope. This is in Upper Canada. ;)

Sharon Temple?

Leto's got it!

It's in Sharon, Ontario naturally.

A quick plug that this weekend is the Doors Open Festival in Toronto. Several architectually interesting places open up and give free tours to the public. A definite destination for me is Lower Bay Station.

Get out and take some photos! http://www.toronto.ca/doorsopen/index.htm

Somewhere Hudson Bay area?

No, it is not in the Hudson Bay area. It is in New Brunswick...

Thank you folks.
Is it the Museum of Anthropology at UBC?

It is indeed. Game on Sticky. (If mammary serves, this is just up the cliff from Wreck Beach...)

would that be in woodbine centre?

Daval, how did you do that so fast.
I figured it would take multiple guesses before someone would get there.

*whistling in the dark...

I've been to woodbine many times, taken my kids there even :)

sorry guys, i totally forgot I had made a guess and for some reason it didnt appear on New Posts for me. I'll give up my turn to anyone who has a picture ready, I don't have anything set to go and am busy at work this morning.

Game on whoever.

OK, I am going

This may be hard. I tried to find a pic that had a little more of the surrounding area around the building to help you determine where it is.
The site I found it on had it posted mentioning that the pic belonged to someone and that he had permission to post it as long as he posted the persons link to their site. Once we guess where it is I will post the link to the site as well.

I am looking for the name and place.

Is the building a hotel or a condominium?
