Photo Du JourWindsor

The Bunker

Work continues on the Peace Beacon. Hopefully when it’s done, it will cease to look like a concrete bunker.

When I was at Dieppe Park shooting these photos, I noticed that there are many reapeating elements in the Civic Centre design of Johnson & McWhinnie. The floral compass, as well as some staircases are all made with the same fieldstone that is part of the Cleary Guest House.

Speaking of the old Guest House, I noticed that the “WELCOME” letters have been removed. Another one gets closer to demolition.
