The fifth image in this series of images I took in and around downtown Toronto. The tall ship Empire Sandy, which runs chartered tours along Toronto's waterfront was originally built as an Englishman/ Larch Deep Sea-class tugboat for war service by the British government in 1943. After the war she served a number of different roles under different names. In the early 1970s she was to be sold for scrap, but fortunately got a new lease on life when she was bought by a new owner who had her completely rebuilt and converted as a three-masted schooner in the style of the 1880s.

Built in 1926 on the Canadian National Exhibition grounds, the building first served as the location for displays by the Ontario government. Later the building was leased to a private company and is now the Liberty Grand Entertainment Centre, an event centre hosting private and public functions.
