No idea, but it looks like a sad and abandoned area. Inglewood?

It's pretty sad that you can't participate in a thread that should have no adversity without tossing in your usual derogatory comments.

I was out in Inglewood last weekend. Very impressed with the way a lot of the buildings have been restored and new commercial spaces in the neighbourhood. Now just need those lots facing the strip filled.

Nice find Surreal. That's a pretty rare sight in Calgary though it would fit right in in Montreal.


This strange car with flowers/art on its trunk should be pretty easy:

Okay, no picture this time because it would give it away but it's a tunnel in Calgary that people can drive their vehicles through. Yes, it's on private property but I've been through it in the past year - still there and very much in operation.

Well, it is pseudo public property, controlled by a private corporation that pays rent to the federal government.

Okay, but there are most definitely no signs posted at the Airport Tunnel stating such whereas the tunnel I speak of it becomes very apparent that you are not on a regular public roadway.

Let's put it this way, if I drive through the Airport Tunnel in a normal, sane fashion, there's pretty much zero chance of being pulled over by the police for being in that tunnel whereas the tunnel I speak of, you certainly could be questioned as to why you might happen to be in there even if you're following all the rules.

Clear enough now?
