  • I found these Muskoka Chairs on the waterfront in Clayton, New York. Loved the interplay of the rich RGB of the chairs against the vivid hues of the sunset. The tower in the background is the water tower, part of the remains of Charles Emery's castle on Calumet Island.

  • The Golden Hawks aerobatics flying team were established in 1959 to commemorate both the 35th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Air Force and the 50th (Golden) anniversary of flight in Canada. Originally tasked for one year, they actually performed 317 shows across North America until they disbanded in 1964. Canada's next team, the Golden Centenaires, flew CT-114 Tutors for Canada's centenial in 1967, and this team was the fore-runner of the Snowbirds who are active to this day. This F-86 is o display next to the Canada Customs station in Brockville harbour, Ontario.

  • At the time of the cholera epidemic in 1832, the village of Brockville established a quarantine centre on Refuge Island, a small island just off the shore, for foreign emmigrants who were landing at Brockville. By 1838, the island was known as Grant's Island, and a blockhouse was built as part of the order to build fortifications in response to the "Patriot War" threat from the US. The blockhouse remained until 1860, by which time the island was joined to the mainland by a causeway, and a roundhouse was built. Now known as Blockhouse Island, it became the terminus of the Brockville-Ottawa Railway, joining water transportation to rail, with the building of lumber docks, the current Customs Warf. Today the basin formed by the island, its causeway, and the customs warf for a very nice harbour basin for recreational boaters.

  • There is a railway tunnel under the town of Brockville. About 1/3 of a mile long, it allowed trains of the Brockville-Ottawa Railway direct access to Brockville's industrial waterfront. City Hall is built on top of this tunnel, as is this park and fountain right behind.

  • Belleville Farmers Market was established in 1816. <br />
<br />
Constructed in 1872-73, Belleville City Hall housed an indoor market on the first floor and, on the second floor, a dual-purpose public hall, auditorium, municipal office and council chamber. The 144' foot tower boasted a large clock visible from both east and west hills, a bell to summon firemen and policemen and a weather vane to show which way the wind was blowing. A pine flag staff rose from the tower. Since wooden poles kept breaking, an iron pole was substituted in 1912. Today, the pole extends 29 feet above the tower.<br />
<br />
After yeoman service for almost a century, the building had fallen into disrepair.  In 1986, renovations provided 10,000 square feet of additional floor space.  The official reopening took place on October 30, 1988. <br />
These improvements meant farmers could no longer conduct their business inside! Today local farmers and artisans use the Market Square behind City Hall, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays all the year round.

  • An identifiable landmark in Belleville Ontario, this building was completed during the economic depression of 1873. <br />
<br />
It was designed in the High Victorian Gothic Revival style by local architect John D. Evans and built by contractor John Forin.  <br />
<br />
This brick and limestone building is distinguished by its tall Gothic Revival windows on the second floor, a bell-cast mansard roof with dormers, a massive 144-foot clock tower with octagonal buttresses, blind arcades of Gothic columns, four large illuminated clock faces and cast iron railings and weathervanes.

  • Designed by Henry H. Horsey, the plans for Victoria Hall were approved in 1862, and constuction was completed in 1864. The first floor was occupied by the Post Office, and the first concert held in the second floor hall was by Madam A. Bishop on October 8, 1864.. Twenty years later, the main building was converted for use as a town hall.

  • Arcadia, Michgan, on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, is built on sand. So much so that weirs like this are commonplace on the beaches of Lake Michigan to mitigate erosion. Otherwise the beaches and the towns would be at risk of disappearing into the lake.

  • This stunted Aspen on the shore of Lake Ontario is probably decades old. It has survived clinging tenaciously to a crack on the exposed bedrock shore of West Point in Sandbanks Provincial Park. This shore is regularily pounded by ferocious waves during the violent storms on the lake, and are scoured each winter by ice floes. It is a miracle of nature that this little tree has survived under such adverse conditions!

  • The Kingston waterfront used to be devoted to shipbuilding, and the union of Great Lakes shipping and rail serving eastern Ontario. Today the majority of that history has been obliterated by disgraceful condominium development. #historylost

  • The Perth Town Hall was built in 1863-1864 to serve the growing Town of Perth. It was designed by architect John Power, and built by Alexander Kippen. As was typical of its place and time, it not only provided offices and council chambers for municipal administration, but also space for a market, a concert hall, a fire hall, a police station and a post office. Over the years, its interior has been substantially altered but the exterior is remarkably intact. Market facilities at the rear have been converted to serve as a fire hall. This building has continuously served as Perth's town hall since it was built.

  • The old grist and saw mill buildings in winter, with the ruins of the old penstock.  These mills were powered by a lake on top of the hills in the background. The waters in the forground used to have an extensive system of piers. The mill complex, and the town which used to be here, were served by the Rideau Canal, and these waters are still accessible from that popular waterway.
