I miss those square banners. These specific ones were much before my time, but I even remember in the late 90s Folklarama but signs like that up all over the city.

As much as sometimes it seems like we've torn down a lot of great buildings (for nothing) it's also remarkable how many we still have. That second pic could almost pass for today, except for having the towers in the background. Crazy how long the triangle lot has been a lot though.
