I walked by the damage last night. Covered in a thick layer of ice, with icicles hanging like gingerbread, the dead buildings look haunted already. Even the ice-covered trees looked like sad skeletons pointing to the damage (they are surely dead as well

I remember that stretch of queen street, and I also remember from my own experience the haunted look of a historic building iced down after fire. We had an old hotel in our town that was taken over by squatters and homeless, and they started a fire to keep warm. Unfortunately, it kept them a little too warm, with one girl dying in the fire.

Now I really want to be in Toronto again.
