Commuters doing their thing on New York’s 7 train, Montreal’s green line, Toronto’s Yonge line and London’s Piccadilly line (if I recall correctly).

No standing in all alleys

Some parking rules never change, apparently! Seen in an alley in Seattle.

Monument to Sir George-Étienne Cartier in Montreal’s Jeanne Mance Park. The site is best known nowadays for its Sunday morning tam-tam public drum (and general hanging out) sessions.

Beautiful arches outside of The Bay store in downtown Calgary … and this wide-angle view helps to make it look as if they stretch on forever.

Pike Place Market in Seattle is as much a feast for the eyes as for the tummy. Here’s what caught my eye on my recent visit there.
The most unusual feature of the market, I found, is represented by the last photo in this series, which is a portion of the bubble gum wall in Post Alley. Chewed up bubble gum turned into rubber street art. It even smells like gum down there.
