Couple of random things:

We live downwind from a Peak Freans plant, here. When the wind blows in the right direction, I get all nostalgic for East City. That passes after the third inhale, however. Then it's all "dear lord, that's disgusting!"

I have a theory that your typical Ptbo four-corners would consist of a church, a pub, a used bookstore, and a coffee shop.

I know the architect who did up the Morrow Building. Lovely man. Taught me how to dance. :)

Looks like a mobile transmitter dealie on top of City Hall. Which wouldn't be surprising. Probably nothing so practical, though.

No more Y? KHAAAAN! Remember when the YWCA building burned down? I still have pictures of the ice-covered shell, somewhere. That was a freaky night. Is there a new Y? Or did they just give up on fitness, entirely, in Ptbo?

I thought the Hasty Pees had moved out of the Armouries, and it was just the Montessori school... if they're coexisting, that's disturbing.

I used to live above Charlotte Anne's -- with a full view of St. John's Anglican. THE BELLS! THE BELLS!

Unreinforced concrete, my ass.

"It's Dave Beardsall, Huck Finn of the Otonabee..." Does anyone but me remember that song? Must still be in Trent Radio's archives...

Some of those shots look like a souped-up Delorean's about to come out of nowhere... Talk about your average small town, eh?
