The bright reds tend to get a lot of attention in autumn but the golden yellows are beautiful too.

And other things that I like!

Fire Station 344
This fine looking building is Toronto Fire Station 344 which was built in 1910 and was originally Fire Station 23. The building originally housed steam-powered horse-drawn pumpers but is now totally modern. It is right in the middle of a residential area in the Annex and I wonder where the horses were kept.

Details On A House
I love all the interesting details on this home in the Annex neighbourhood like the wonderful side porch and the lovely oriel window above it. At the front of the house there is a nice balcony on the 3rd floor and then along the side of the 3rd floor is that little round window. I'm betting this place is beautiful inside.

A Party Bus
I first noticed the mural on the side of this bus and then saw the name. It reminded me of an old hippie bus but it turns out that it is a party bus that takes people around on pub crawls and other things like that. No actual party on the bus.

Another Fine Restoration
I love all the wonderfully restored homes in the Yorkville neighbourhood. This old Victorian looks quite grand.

Pretty Girl
The male Cardinals seem to get all the attention but the females are quite pretty too. This one was getting ready for a bath up on our roof deck.

School Conversion
This building in the Annex neighbourhood housed a convent and high school for girls for many years. It was converted to condos several years ago and they are quite lovely. I have been in a couple of them and they have large rooms, lots of space and lots of windows. A successful conversion.
