#102: Tracks, Snow and Mountains OH MY
Beautiful Shot!!! Never Before Seen! Is this Dundas Valley Consv. Area?
Flar: I have been wanting to mention this Hamilton section for a while now and for the posted group one:
1-Interesting street w/neighborhood store-where?
3-Nice "twin" building in which one occupant owns a large dog...
4-Nice stream pic off mountain in winter...
7,40-Nice waterfall pics-where?
8-Neat atrium of what building?
9-Nice red vintage Mercedes-Benz in this pic...
12-Rail line near Bayview Junction?
13,14,20,26,28,32,33,37,45,48,58 and 60 are interesting Hamilton airviews...
18-Nice sunset pic...
21-An invitation to visit Uncle Fidel(Not yet extended to those from the US legally...yet!)and perhaps sample the World's best cigars...

Sorry for the delay, I've been busy and haven't logged in for a while, until now.
#1 is James St. North. Increasingly known as James North rather than Jamesville, as it is officially known. It's a neighbourhood shared by Portuguese, Italians and the arts community.
#7 & 40: the first is Sherman Falls in Ancaster and the second is Webster's Falls in Greensville.
#8 is the Standard Life Centre, but I think it's called something else now.
#12: Yes
#27: Durand neighbourhood
#30: Stinson neighbourhood, I think
#34: Bayview junction again, the bridge with the steel frame just visible at the top is the High Level Bridge. In all I think there are two bridges for Hwy 403, the High Level Bridge (York Blvd) and two train bridges. Underneath there is a pedestrian bridge perpendicular to the others over the canal between Hamilton Harbour and Cootes Paradise.
#39 is James Street South
#42: the most common style of rowhouse in Hamilton
#46: I can't remember where this alley is, there are paved alleys like this all over the lower city.
#49: This house is actually just minutes from downtown. It's on James St just after it curves up the Escarpment.
#52 is the main CN rail yard near the tip of the west harbour, just east of Bayview Junction.
Thanks for the comments LI MIke
Oddly enough, the Streets which saw two-way conversions within the last couple of years (namely James & John) has seen a lot of empty storefronts open up since the conversion. Yet City Council almost decided to squash any future two-way conversion plans a couple months ago, despite the obvious & evident success stories along these stretches!
I don't like how they did the conversions though. The bending over backwards to accomodate left turn lanes is far worse than the recent much-talked-about St. Clair ROW controversy. James St. going from three lanes to one to three to two to one to three and on and on is crazy.
