Description
This is what I get for misplacing my camera. Toronto: Where even the elicit drinking is cultured, polite and tidy. Surely the Heineken people would love this scene. Two empty, upright Heineken green bottles gracing such a concrete grey and dilapidated place. There's just something so very Canadian about this, if only I were sober enough to pin point it. #IveBeenDrinking I had always intended to post this picture for over two years. The absence of my camera resulted in me going back into my archives to find it. I took it on the north side of a pedestrian bridge over Queen Street in Toronto. I was up there to capture streetcar movements along the Queen Line below. The bridge itself connects the swanky downtown Sheraton Centre and Hotel with Nathan Phillips Square, home to "New" City Hall - seen in the back ground. No doubt the passage was intended to be a busy corridor for VIPs and wealthy tourists making their way back and forth from the hotel to the halls of city power and the public square around it. But like so many keen "modern" architecture coming out of the 60's and early 70's, the passage and its terraces ended up disused. Disused save as a haven for those who want to consume their intoxicants out of our collective legal boxes. Cheers everyone and enjoy your weekend.

A most interesting shot - had that been here, they would have smashed the bottles against the wall.... At least they left a photo waiting to be taken! LOL
Great sense of image and composition !!!!!!!
Absolutely fabulous my friend... Beautiful cityscape too!!!
Outstanding capture, my friend! Well done!

That certainly would be a great shot for a brewery and as you say at least they put them tidily against the wall. Great to see no graffiti here too. 😀
