Where am I in.... Canada? - Page 67 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

hagatha · 06-25-2007, 01:14 PM

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:

Sticky · 06-29-2007, 11:41 AM

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...

Nope. Go west.

splck · 07-03-2007, 09:28 PM

Leto, Is that the SFU campus?

Nope, You're too far west. Think of wild rose country.

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

This should be an easy one...

elaphe · 07-04-2007, 07:04 PM

splk, Banff, Alta?

splck · 07-04-2007, 09:32 PM

No, not Banff.

Leto · 07-05-2007, 06:50 AM

entrance to Whistler Village?

splck · 07-05-2007, 04:14 PM

no, not Whistler. It's closer to Banff than Whistler

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

It's in BC.

HeyAgain · 07-07-2007, 04:45 AM

Revelstoke, BC

hagatha · 07-07-2007, 08:35 AM

Lake Louise?

splck · 07-07-2007, 03:21 PM

Hey! HeyAgain, you're right.

HeyAgain · 07-08-2007, 04:19 AM

Leto · 07-09-2007, 09:05 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?

One street south.

Here is another view from 1912.

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?
