David Pecaut Square, Toronto (No. 2)
The public space features Canadian sculptor Bernie Miller's The Poet, The Fever Hospital, a 1992 piece made up of galvanized steel, bronze, granite, and marble. The sculpture incorporates a fountain and reflecting pool. The title refers to the poet Isabella Valancy Crawford, who stayed for a brief time in a house that was demolished for the construction of Metro Hall at the southeast corner of King and John Streets. The fever hospital refers to one of Toronto's first hospitals, which stood at the northeast corner of King and John Streets from 1829 to 1856. Sheltered by a large granite wall, four bronze boxes evoking television monitors stacked nearly 5 metres high form a fountain. The water flows into a marble basin and into the reflecting pool. The boxes are framed with a semi-circular steel beam, perforated with small holes and mounted at a gentle tilt. The reflecting pool also has an eternal flame fueled by natural gas, unveiled in 1996. The Eternal Flame of Hope is inspired by the perseverance of disabled people, and burns as a reminder that society must be all-inclusive
Also located at the southwestern part of the square is Jaan Poldaas' Surface Design for Tampered Windscreens (1992), a sculpture composed of tempered glass screens which functions as a windbreak. The screens are etched with vertical and horizontal lines to create different relationships, and are arranged so that people can walk between them. Cynthia Short's Remembered Sustenance (1992) is piece composed of 19 small and generic bronze animals on the grass just off the sidewalk on Wellington Street West. Half the animals appear to be headed for a bronze feeding dish while the other half seem to be walking away.
Pecaut Square also has a lawn and trees along its outer edges. The public space allows for unique views of Metro Hall, Roy Thomson Hall and the Royal Alexandra Theatre. It is frequently used for free concerts, film screenings, and other events; for the state funeral of Jack Layton on August 27, 2011, the square was used to accommodate a screening for overflow crowds not able to be seated inside Roy Thomson Hall.

Tower-ing Fiction #10: The Seven/Vought Tower, The Boys (2019)
by Shawn Gilmore
Amazon’s recent series The Boys (2019), an adaptation of a comic-book series of the same name, concerns a twisted version of DC’s Justice League, called The Seven, who are opposed by “the Boys,” a set of humans out to expose them for the evil deeds. The comic-book series was a pastiche of series like Alan Moore’s Marvelman and Watchmen, but relied on gore, sexual violence, and shocking depravity to keep readers’ attention—the girlfriend of the main protagonist, Hughie, is not just fridged in the first issue, but exploded by a speedster passing through her body; a spinoff series is literally called Herogasm…
The comics and their streaming adaptation also rely on establishing a visual iconography, setting up The Seven and their world, with their exploits mostly located in and around New York City.
The New York City setting, including the effects of The Seven—ruined bridges and buildings, still-stand World Trade Center towers—appears regularly in the comics:
Just as contemporary New York City appears in the show:
The comics establish that The Seven use a low-orbit satellite as their base (and for surveillance)
However, in the show, The Seven work from the Vought International tower, situated among the other skyscrapers of New York City:
Specifically, the tower, with its rounded façade, and stylized “7” design, seems to have its base on 5th Avenue, in the block bounded by 40th and 41st Streets (or the next block north), putting it adjacent to the New York Public Libary and Bryant Park, as well as a couple of blocks from Grand Central Terminal.
The Seven (Vought) Tower is present in nearly every episode of the series, often in establishing skyline shots:
But, interestingly, the base of The Seven Tower is a flared glass conic section, seemingly set among a variety of buildings, some obviously not drawn from the New York inventory of towers.
The base of the tower uses Toronto’s Roy Thomson Hall, an iconic Toronto landmark and concert hall, home to the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, itself situated next to a park, David Pecaut Square.
As much of The Boys was shot in and around Toronto, this isn’t particularly surprising, especially as Roy Thomson Hall has previously appeared in films such as X-Men (dir. Bryan Singer, 2000) and the remake version of Total Recall (dir. Len Wiseman, 2012), but it is interesting to see the “X” structure of the base replicated up The Seven Tower, becoming the base of the “7” and establishing a lattice over the building’s windows that we frequently see inside the tower.
This window structure unifies the real-world location (Roy Thomson Hall) with the digial skyscraper exterior, and physical set used for The Seven’s meeting/planning room, which overlooks the city:

Recap of Sweetery Toronto 2017
Recap of Sweetery Toronto 2017. @sweeterytoronto #foodblogging #foodfestivals #torontosweets
Sweetery Toronto 2017is the third year that this “all things sweet” food festival was hosted in Toronto. I still remember the first inaugural year that I went when I had a really enjoyable time being led by Vivien to taste nearly all of the vendors at the food festival. Last year’s event was self-guided and not as fun since it didn’t seem like many of the vendors were receptive to the media…
