Below is Cottingham school, made famous by the late Christiane Pflug. A gentleman approached while I was working. Turned out to be Christiane's husband, still living in the same house across from the school.

Massey Hall

Toronto's Massey Hall was built in 1894, and has hosted the likes of Maria Callas, Pavarotti, Winston Churchill, Thelonius Monk, Neil Young, and the Dalai Lama. It is still a vital venue today, now dwarfed by buildings of much younger vintage.
Below is a painting of the Hall's 'business end'.
