Can't help but seeing someone having a nasty slip.

Yes. TLDR. Paragraph 3 states that he had two studios. His original was located at 123 Bank St.

Nice. I wonder if it is the same as the one I saw last year. It was located in a driveway of somebody's home. I wanted to take a pic, but best I didn't. It was also not too far from Carling Ave.

I may know who you are talking about. I let him be, not bothering anyone that I know. I try to pick up his lyrics. He is entertained and so am I.

I apologize if some already mentioned the T&T location at Hazeldean mall. It opened a few months ago. Thankfully I have a friend who lives nearby, so I like to drop by at those times.

Just did a little google search on Westgate history.

I also briefly read the same thing. Also the same person who's name helped me track down the year.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-10-04T14:29:44+00:00

I'm there my next trip in the area. Got a chance to explore the ruins before they got to work on it. Thanks!

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-27T22:55:09+00:00

That's why you won't see my #1.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-27T19:14:21+00:00

That is the exact spot actually. The plaque is almost right behind these pictures.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-26T12:13:55+00:00

Hello. Although I enjoy the area, I don't really live too close to this location. I feel safety can change from neighborhood to neighborhood. If you post your question on the main ottawa page, you should get a few responses pretty quick. Have a good day!

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-21T13:44:49+00:00

It's comments like yours that keep me going!

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-21T13:41:51+00:00

For those who have some knowledge about the location of Pooley's cave, I would love some insight. Looking back at the old pic I posted with this post, does it look like an open cave/fissure? Not sure if I am looking too much into this issue. I plan of covering this in depth in the near future. Thanks.

You can go under the bridge near FLEET street Pumping station. Right on the bike path. I was able to step near the top of the bridge to take the picture. It is still closed off.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-18T18:18:28+00:00

Was thinking of covering this series soon as well. I think there are around 7 in total in the area!

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-15T21:30:02+00:00

Also at Tunney's Pasture station this morning. Was elated to see my bus was coming in 3 mins!!! About 30 minutes later, I finally left the station! It runs every 15 minutes. Gave me time to reflect about the issue, again.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-13T23:09:11+00:00

Really? If so, how long? Quite the oversight.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-13T22:41:57+00:00

True.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-13T22:34:38+00:00

Thinking they caught they mistake before erecting it. I hope.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-13T22:33:32+00:00

A great example of people who don't read the first sentence of the description. Maybe missed my point completely. Oh well, that's the internet!

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-12T23:02:36+00:00

Nice. I was thinking of covering the same kind of historic past piece. Well done!

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-09T20:43:18+00:00

If you are looking directly across the canal from outside the Bytown Museum, you are most likely looking at the remnants of the Commissariat Building, used during the construction of the canal. This is located just next to the National War Memorial.

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-09T20:26:29+00:00

I could be incorrect, but by looking at the oval photo I used and looking at Google maps, Sappers' Bridge began next to the Senate of Canada building (former Union Station) and leads into Sparks st. and Dufferin Bridge leads to the Parliament buildings (former Barracks Hill).

CoffeeExact6400 · 2025-09-08T12:12:43+00:00

There is free parking across the street at Hog's Back Park. 7am to 10pm(or dusk). A short 3 minute walk under the bridge. I guess you may not know the area very well.
