Toronto, June 2006
The spot where I stood to take this picture is a condo now. The building in the foreground is now a huge pit, soon to be a pair of condos. The next layer of buildings are already replaced by condo construction that has risen seven storeys, enough to block the view of downtown and the CN Tower.
Dude watches from a balcony as the wrecking arm chipped away at the smoke stack, all that remained of 48 Abell.
Taking down the stack at 48 Abell. The wrecking machine has extended its reach by gripping an i-beam, using it as a stick to poke at the top of the stack and chip away bricks.
I can’t be the only one bothered by the fact that “Triangle Park” will be a rectangle.
The beginning of the very end of 48 Abell.

The final destruction of 48 Abell will be… EPIC!
48 Abell persists surrounded by Queen West Triangle condos
