Another view of one of the newest office towers in Calgary. The canopy at right is from the 6th Street CTrain station, while the building in the reflection is the Calgary Courts Centre. Snapped on the weekend.

This derelict distillation column is one of the very few visual reminders of a long-gone Firestone tire plant, which occupied an industrial site adjacent to the present-day Barlow/Max Bell CTrain station in Calgary.

Calgary, Alberta, Canada

A fire tore through this bed and breakfast on 10A Street N.W. in Calgary back in April. Since then, a chronicle of its life spanning more than a century has appeared on the plywood covering its front windows. Thanks for the memories, indeed.

This is a great place for a park bench, if you ask me! This view of downtown Calgary is from Houndsfield Heights/Briar Hill.
