Grand Entrance

This is the grand entrance to a condominium complex on Avenue Rd in the Yorkville neighbourhood. Aren't those lights spectacular! I posted a detail shot of the sofa you can see in the background, way back in 2010. Click HERE to see that shot.

    The entrance itself is spectacular Pat, the lights an added bonus. How fun is the stuffed sofa sculpture, I had to go back and check it out properly, fab!

    Hard to believe that's the entrance to a condo...looks more like a grand entrance to some major government installation! I like the lights but it's all quite spectacular. I won't ask the price of the condos.

    That would be a great address though. You could tell people, haughtily of course, that you live at "38 Avenue Road in Yorkville."

    Yes, sounds like a great address to build a mystery around.

    I thought this was a hotel or a bank! Wow, it must be lovely to come home when they are lit!

    A very warm welcome home must await residents who live here, reminds me a little of one or two places in Manchester city centre!

    What a fantastic entrance and those lights are pretty spectacular. I think I'd feel kind of special if I lived there.

    I've passed by there at night, once. It's quite different by day.

    The place is way beyond my price range but I'm glad it doesn't cost anything to look and admire the entrance and lighting.
