A Bit Of A Mystery

 

Just  across the road from yesterday's parkette in the Honest Ed's complex is this rather mysterious building. With a group of high rises as a backdrop it is short and the front of it folds open like a garage door. I have no idea what it will become but I would guess that it will be some type of community activity centre. It is still under construction.

Stary Wall

 

The redevelopment of the old Honest Ed's site has been going on for several years but they have finally been opening some businesses and this is a parkette along Markham St which has a stage area, plantings, and this great mural which has no artist info. That is a fountain on the right side but it wasn't turned on when I was there.

More Balconies

 

This condo building on Dupont St has been under construction for a few years but it looks like some people have moved in and there are flowers on a couple of the balconies. It is the curvy balconies that give this building some style.

Theme Day: Purple

 

The August theme for the City Daily Photo Blog community is purple and for this theme I offer this rare purple speckled fish which I made in earthenware about 20 years ago. There aren't very many of them around. This is also my entry for the Saturday's Critters meme.

Another Balcony

On these hot days in summer a nice balcony is so nice to see and I seem to have been coming upon many this season. This one had a lot of nice shade and space for friends to sit out and relax.
 

Funky Mushrooms

 

These funky mushrooms were spotted by a large tree in the front garden of a home. I loved them so had to stop for a shot. The big one is over a foot tall.

Exercise

 

I have often wondered if anyone used these exercise stations found in some parks. Well I have actually seen several people using the ones in this local park so they do work to get people moving after all.
