I know I do... they are knocking down perfectly good houses that could be moved...

Just take Markham's heritage corners as an example, they moved all their old houses and made a subdivision out of it... why can't Pickering do the same?

Because they don't want to spend the cash or go through the extra hassle of moving houses?




Gone for a while. Be back when I'm back.

most of the houses slated for demolition in the airport lands are shitty and falling apart. Even when they were brand new they weren't anything special. Of course there are a few exceptions with unique architectural elements or historical significance, but they're few and far between.

Virtually all of the boarded up TC houses I've actually been inside were terribly boring and hardly even worth photographing. They're completely empty and pitch black inside. Fun for light painting I suppose, but not much else. The only true shame will be when the airport is never built, and those families will have been forced out of their homes for nothing (the ones who didnt eagerly move away in the first place anyway).

There's a ton of interesting abandoned properties in and around that area, but most of them are privately owned and not board up TC houses.

Not all the houses in this area are shitty. I live in the area and everyday I admire the Gingerbread trim that is slowly becoming faded, and withered all because one day we may have an airport.

It's like watching a slow death...


I hate Transport Canada!




I'm typing this with my middle fingers.
I love the smell of mold in the fall.
