Daily Flick – Weird Fundraiser Alligator

February 26, 2008


Photo by Carol Browne.

These daily Flickr photos might take a weird turn, starting here. I had never heard of “Canstruction” until I found this image but I guess it’s some sort of fundraiser where they make things out of stacks of non-perishables. Looks pretty awesome to me.

Plaza of Nations buildings… Buh Bye

February 25, 2008

wrecking2.jpg

Rode my bike down to the casino the other night and, um, couldn’t help but notice that the rickety old roof at the Plaza of Nations is now gone and for some reason they’re tearing down the office building thing that was behind it too. Rebar everywhere, if you get a chance you should go and have a look before it’s all gone; it’s seriously beautiful.

Here’s what I used as a tripod to rest my camera on for the photo above… a real life wrecking ball!

New edition at Leeside…

February 25, 2008

imgp2812.jpg

The elves at Leeside have been… as they say in the office… clocking OT… For those of you who don’t know where this is, it’s under the Hastings exit off hwy 1. Even if you don’t skate you should check it out…it’s like a community garden but instead of plants… there’s some of the best graffiti in the city (someone tell me what the shit this stuff even says!) and some scary ass crap like this new corner… 100% organic… skate and create!
