Down With The Old

In the Tarot the Tower card shows a tower being struck by lighting & collapsing – I always assume the card means disaster but the actual meaning is that the old must dies so the new can live – something needs to be sacrificed for change to happen – wether that is letting go of old ideas or old shoes – you have to find a way of making room for the new.

These pictures are of an apartment complex near Queen & Coxwell in Toronto that is making way for the new.

This garage/body shop on the Danforth near Donlands has been abandoned for a few years now. Work started but stopped abruptly. I suspect they discovered toxins underground. I have seen soil testers taking samples in front once then a few moths later more soil testers along the side.

I did step inside at the back but wasn’t sure how structurally sound the floor, ceiling were & wasn’t ready to scarce more than my time for art 🙂
