about

“A hundred years hence the people of Toronto will point to 1930 as the year in which the citizens decided that their city should take its place among the great cities of the continent, properly equipped for the handling of modern traffic, with wide streets lined by business places and public buildings of stately architecture...”

Toronto Star editorial on proposed Cambrai Avenue and Vimy Circle, 1930.

"No idea is perfect or universally loved in its time — they are simply choices that would have fundamentally changed the way we experience our city. Some have earned a second chance, others
seem to exist in a perennial state of study. And there are the others — the grand boulevards that will never happen, because you get only a brief chance to build a downtown.”

“The five greatest ideas Toronto never built”, Toronto Star, 26 January 2014.

lyrics

If I walked another path
and chose to love,
I wonder how
things might have been
you in my arms
a shadow on the wall
chasing a memory

Amber light
in the hallway
fire flies
shimmering
bringing you back
to my heart
to my centre
in a dream
innocent

Amber light
in the hallway
fire flies
shimmering
bringing you back
to my heart
to my centre
in a dream
innocent

If I walked another path
and chose to love
well I wonder how
things might have been
you in my arms
a shadow on the wall
chasing a memory
