Is that on Vancouver Island?

Leto 06-26-2007 09:49 AM

hmmm.. I was thinking it was in Muskoka, somewhere like Lake Joseph.

hagatha 06-26-2007 10:28 AM

see I was thinking that too, but then i thought it was too obvious.

fresnelly 06-26-2007 12:02 PM

Those hills in the background look very BC-ish to me.

hagatha 06-26-2007 04:02 PM

You know, that was my second thought. Honest.

Leto 06-27-2007 07:12 PM

k, I will go with Lake Joseph, Muskoka. There are hills like that in the highlands.

Leto 06-29-2007 09:23 AM

well, we can wait for ol' sleepy head Charlatan to get back to us (he is on the otherside of the world after all) or we can just proceed, until he can get back to us. So to keep this going, here is a pic that you westerners should appreciate:

Is that the Happy Canada Day building in the city of Happy Canada Day?

Charlatan 06-29-2007 03:18 PM

Sorry folks...

The building is in BC but not on Vancouver Island...

Sticky 07-04-2007 06:47 AM

The Calgary window building

Leto 07-04-2007 07:40 AM

nope. It is a city hall.

splck 07-04-2007 07:48 AM

Medicine Hat city hall.

Leto 07-04-2007 11:21 AM

You got it.

splck 07-04-2007 12:54 PM

No, not Banff.

splck 07-05-2007 04:14 PM

Charlatan 07-06-2007 06:25 AM

You got the Vancouver Rowing Club right as well...

Jasper? I don't remember it from the last time I was there, but that was a long time ago.

splck 07-06-2007 08:08 AM

Miner Building, Bay street?

HeyAgain 07-09-2007 07:21 PM

Next street over.

Leto 07-11-2007 07:47 AM

sheppard Street?

HeyAgain 07-11-2007 08:17 AM

Nope, on Yonge Street. South of College Street. Here is another hint. Note the building located on the right-hand side.

Looking for the name of the building.

Sticky 07-13-2007 06:10 AM

The "Toronto is the center of the universe building"

fresnelly 07-13-2007 08:24 AM

That's at Temperance St. right?

Sticky 07-16-2007 06:48 AM

Is this a building that we should know?

fresnelly 07-16-2007 09:10 AM

I was able to drive, but not walk by the building on the weekend. It's #6 Adelaide street, but I didn't notice a plaque or any other significant markers.

My google and Wiki searches didn't turn anything up either. I suppose I could visit the City Archives and peruse the old City directories, but... any more hints? :D

Thanks for the reconnaissance big help on the address.

I am declaring myself pretty good at Google.

The answer is:
The Lumsden Building
