What A View


This is my favourite view of the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) which really shows the hand of Frank Gehry at work. This is taken from in Grange Park which is directly behind the gallery and was probably a place where Gehry played as a child.  I love the blue titanium and that wonderful staircase projecting out of the wall.

The staircase is really different and maybe a bit strange looking.

Hello,
The staircase is cool, I love the blue color of the building.
Take care, have a great weekend!

A gorgeous blue. I wonder if you're aware as you walk the stairs that you're hanging off the side of the building...

By putting the stairs on the outside of the building Frank Gehry got more wall space to hang art. Good angle RedPat.
