very good. Sorry for the delay, I was out shopping last night. Not only did I get real Montreal style bagels, but since the Bagel House is really close to Besst Buy, I picked myself up a new TV set. Yup, I've joined the LCD world...

How is the new city hall perceived in Calgary? Is it liked or considered as an architectural blight?

Okay, here's my pic. where is this beach. there is a small town in the picture, famous for its cinamon buns.

Google found it for me - New Brunswick cinnamon buns.

Potentially an easy one before the weekend:

I think the building looks awesome (city hall) but I don't know what anyone else thinks of it.

Sticky, how about we bar ourselves from guessing each other's submissions?

As for Calgary's new City Hall, unfortunately the sterile windows and the sharp edges make it look like any other soulless building.

my guess is that this is in Montreal somewhere. But is it a door? a sign? artwork?

It is on Montreal, it is not a door. The lighting is pretty bad becuase it is backlit and I don't have a good handle on my camera features.

Her is an almost equally as bad lit picture. This one shows a little more.

here's a shot in the dark: Montreal Subway art. Peel Station? Or could it be Prefontaine or De L'eglise?

*edit: No, I'll stick with Peel.

Since I won't be available mid-week, here's a hint to speed things up.

Yes, it's a billboard, but it doesn't carry any advertising.

Nope, not Champlain bridge. But you're in the right city.

Sticky, do you happen to know what it is?

Leto, it's not a highway sign because there's no highway near it. Try again.

Nope! It ain't a scoreboard! It's just a billboard.

The billboard is significant for what it contains as well as its location. And as I've said before, there's no advertisement on it, but there is something ruby red on it.

I'll be out of "virtual" touch until Wednesday night. But you should all have more than enough hints by now to properly Google the answer.

Specifically, is it a billboard with big kissy lips that proclaims 'Monteal is for lovers'! On the Hyatt ?

FOUL on Leto!

Yes, it's the correct billboard, but you've failed to identify the correct location. The Lips billboard is located on the roof of the Montreal Contemporary Art Museum.

Here's the view from the front.



EDIT: Sticky, is that the Super Ex at Lansdowne Park, Ottawa?
