Mock Tudor

Photobucket

Edward Kourt is an apartment complex near the intersection of Royal and 8th. If I'm not mistaken, it used to be much more mock Tudor than it currently is. The suites are lovely, with wood floors and rounded archways within.

Hart Block

Interesting doorway on a small walkway known as Lorne Mews. It runs between Columbia and Carnarvon streets in downtown.

Puddle Jumper

Photobucket

A cute little puddle jumper at the corner of Royal and 8th. The park was renamed Toronto Place Park a couple of years back when this little sculpture appeared. Until recently, I'd only ever seen it from the street, never having gone up the steps to see it from above. Imagine my surprise!

Knox

Photobucket

There are some rather clever sign writers at the local churches. This one, Knox Presbyterian on Columbia Street in Sapperton, said, "Under same management for over 2000 years".

Donation

Photobucket

Mural on the side of the former Salvation Army store next to New Westminster Skytrain Station. The buildings above and to the right are new, and it would appear that this old building is going to be somehow incorporated into the building complex that is soon to include shops and cinemas. If I am remembering correctly, construction of this megalith has been ongoing since 2006.
