Launceston is a city that prides itself on restrained 19th century architecture. But then in the 1970s developers got the upper hand and ugly was in. Thank goodness heritage laws have since been introduced to protect our treasures, but we are still left with eyesores like this.
But honestly? They are a photographer's dream in settings like this.

Commerce Court is a cluster of four office buildings in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, located in the financial district on King Street and Bay Street. The main tenant is the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce.
The first building, now known as Commerce Court North, was built in 1930 as the headquarters of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, a precursor bank to the current main tenant. Designed by the firm Pearson and Darling, the 34-storey tower was the tallest building in the British Empire/Commonwealth until 1962. At the time of its construction, the building was one of the most opulent corporate headquarters in Canada.
In 1972, three other buildings were erected, thus creating the Commerce Court complex: Commerce Court West designed by Pei Cobb Freed & Partners (the tallest building in the complex, at 57 storeys, and the tallest building in Canada from 1972–1976), Commerce Court East (13 storeys), and Commerce Court South (5 storeys). In 1994, Zeidler Partnership Architects was commissioned to renovate the Commerce Court urban plaza, the banking area at the base of Commerce Court West, and the below-grade retail area.

These 2 bottle kilns in Longton were built in the late 19th century as part of the Commerce Works pottery. The pottery was run by the Chetham family from 1796 - 1869 and then taken over by H.J Aynsley in 1873. Final closure came in the 1990s and the site has stood derelict since. The building is listed Grade II but I doubt that will save it.

The history of Commerce Court North reaches back to when it was built in 1931. The 34-storey North Tower was the tallest building in the British Empire until 1962 and home to Canada's business elite for a generation. It was designed by Pearson and Darling Architects of Toronto, with the help of U.S. design firm York and Sawyer. With its stunning vaulted gold-coffered ceiling and classic Art-Deco style, it was a showplace in its time, and today remains a treasured Heritage building in Toronto's financial core and major component of Commerce Court.
