Graffiti spraypainted north of Bloor and Bathurst that was itself subjected to graffiti, all memorializing a viral movement that was a flash in the pan at least a decade too late, the lesson instructed by this whole thing is that politics gets everywhere.

Looking south and west from Ossington Station‘s platform in the late evening, the backs of the low-slung and mainly commercial buildings lining Bloor Street West a couple dozen metres to the south of the platform are left exposed.

This magnolia tree on Dufferin just below Bloor was in full beautiful bloom Friday.

One of the flowers of the magnolia tree I photographed Friday is here in close-up.

Looking northwest across the under-construction intersection of Bloor and Runnymede in west-end Toronto, the monolithic block of this TD Canada Trust bank stands out against the generally low-lying streetscape of Bloor West Village.

Ian Irving has a nice face-on picture of the building here.

Last summer I was walking past the Anglican Church of the Redeemer at Bloor Street West and Avenue Road when I happened on a happy wedding crowd outside.

(A 2008 picture of the church’s exterior is available here.)

The BMV Books located on 471 Bloor Street West in the heart of The Annex was recognized as special as soon as it opened at the end of 2006. At night, the store’s three illuminated stories beckon.

Boarding for the 510 Spadina at Spadina TTC station occurs indoors, in an underground loop. An approximation to light rail, here? Perhaps.
