CN Tower Skyline

Toronto, Canada

Although hard to see, dangerous slabs of ice develop on the northeast side of the upper spire of the CN Tower (above and below the pod) and for this reason the Toronto police ordered the closing of the downtown section of the Gardiner Expressway last month.

 

While lighter winds have allowed the Gardiner Expressway to reopen, officials are stumped about how to deal with slabs of ice that form and cling to the CN Tower.
