Bit of rain/snow last night... plus a large tent being erected in the square for the Grey Cup festivities (my apologies for the cellphone quality):

Are they redoing the copper on the roof of the chateau? The central tower looks great!

Yes indeed ! They did last summer ... Not sure about the rest of the Château's roofs.

And for the Price building, you can barely see it because it's darker, but they're working on the stone ... you can see scaffolds on it (first pano)

Awesome. Two beautiful major historic structures that need to be preserved.

I guess I'm alone in thinking the green looked better...

But by means of preservation it had to be done.

It did for sure, but this doesn't look bad, and it will be green again in a decade or so!

I like both the new and the aged copper, and all the stages in between. Such a beautiful roofing material.

I just got back from the east coast. I was in Moncton all week and made a day trip to Charlottetown. I've never been so far away from Hamilton. I took all of these

Many office buildings are reminiscent of the male member. The building above, however, was obviously designed by somebody with mummy issues. Dig it.
