Hamilton, ON - Just a shorty

Was downtown renewing the passport and ended up on the roof of Jackson Sq. when all was said and done. Than my gf reminded me of the Eaton's sign that's still here in relation to that article that some of us might have read.

I have yet to do a full-out photo tour of my hometown but would like to once the weather gets warmer





And if you squint hard enough...



You will see it...kinda neat!



Some kool symmetry if you take the time to explore downtown







Mister Lister all tidied up and handsome...was going to go in but the tourism office closed at 4







Got to see the horseman charging too

That plaza on top of Jackson Square is so underutilized. I wonder what percentage of Hamiltonians have ever been up there? Unless they work in Jackson Square or one of the surrounding office buildings and take smoke breaks, it's probably not many.

Do they still have the plays up there anymore?

Just that I imagine for the most part as we saw workers on their smoke breaks

I only use the roof as a short cut to get to the other side of Jackson Sq, if I'm coming from James OR Bay Street. It's always been just kind of there but yeah, they sometimes have jazz concerts or graffiti galas

It used to be that going up on the rooftop meant risking an a** kicking. Not so much anymore - it just sucks now.
