From my trip to San Francisco in December: There’s something I find aesthetically pleasing about how the angles of the building materials interact in this airport terminal. The variable sizes of the holes in the metal grilles add a little something too.

The vanishing point makes it seems like Union Station is so far away! In reality this is just a block or so east of the entrance, along the Sky Walk toward CN Tower and the Toronto convention centre.
