[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I persuaded an architect friend of mine in October 1974 to go with me on an architectural tour starting in Key West Florida, up the eastern seaboard of the U.S. all the way to Canada and down again to the U.S. It took us seven weeks zig-zagging the U.S. and Canada till we reached our destination Los Angeles, California. This photo is part of my collection of slides from that trip.

At the center of this photo, just behind the foreground building is Toronto City Hall. The city still looks barren of buildings compared to the present. The tallest then were Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (where this was taken) and the Toronto Dominion Twin Towers.

This photo was scanned from my collection of slides. I do not have the ECIF for it. I was using my old Petri camera.

Hi Andre

Worth posting for its historic value, imho. Good tonal range although I would run the fg through a 20-30% sharpening process. Tfs!

Love this one too, Andre. Love the b/w, the grain, the cityscape. There seems something funny going on in the upper left hand corner though.
