London Back in the Day

[Simpseatles]

I don't really want the twin for OLP built. We have more than enough twins in this city. Although, if it was significantly taller or shorter, with a slightly different design it could work. Another problem for me, is that OLP is such a (locally) iconic building for the city, that I can't really ever imagine it losing it's title as tallest. But one day I really want to see a building go above 120 m downtown, so I am torn!

In my youth I use to work at a bar at 219 Dundas I think it was called Tootsie Red Lion does anyone have more information and the bar and the two sisters that owned it one was named Helen the other sister was a hard core religious person who was always preaching at the dancers

The Red Lion is now called Solid Gold and is still a strip club.
