Thanks, William.

Nicely captured John.

Thanks, Jaap,

Great contrast between the two types of dwellings. A few of my latest photos were taken in Dundas Street, Glasgow. All the best, Joe

Thanks, Joe. I hadn't thought about these being two types of dwelling. Dundas Street is a highway that runs 200 km from east Toronto to London, Ontario, where I live now. The Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada in the 1790s, John Graves Simcoe, wanted London to be the capital of Upper Canada, and the road was intended to supply it from the docks of Toronto. Simcoe named the road after his friend Henry Dundas. As in Scotland, I believe, there have been recent demands to rename the street, but so far it has retained its name.

A pity, this seems such a nice old house! I guess it was too expensive to restore it...

It does look to be in sad shape, Gudrun, It would have been nice to see the original brick, though. In the 1960s it was trendy in Toronto to paint over beautiful 19th-century brick, Contemporary brick is far inferior.

Tones, light and emotion similar a Edward Hopper
I like very much, John

Thank you, JG, I'm an admirer of Hopper's use of light, so that's quite a compliment,

What a shame, it looks (looked) very British...

Toronto was very Britannophile in the old days, Denis, so this house may well have been inspired by British pattern books.
