Or I think at some point a third tower was added behind the Victoria facade then removed.

Ah yes, k10ery, finally, to the left of the smokestack, the tower that has caused so much mischief in this thread.

Wouldn't it have been nice if it had remained for Ryerson to re-purpose?

The street's too wide, isn't it?

My wild guess is College St. west of Spadina, looking east. A little bit further east than this William James beauty of 1937. (Now let the experts weigh in...)

Again- the knowledge here is astounding. Maybe the angle makes the street seem wider
