Just a few minutes from the King’s Cross/St. Pancras railway complex in London are the Coal Drop Yards, a former industrial area along the Regents Canal being remade for modern retail/leisure, near other new buildings housing offices and residential spaces. Here is one of the buildings, as it was about a year ago.

One of the things I love seeking out at Calgary Expo is the Lego area, operated by the Southern Alberta Lego Users Group. This is from this past weekend.
