On Dufferin Street, south of Queen W. W. I noticed Graffiti behind construction vehicles blocking an alley.
I found Popeye beside some Graffiti Art.
Behind Popeye are the clapboards surrounding yet another Toronto condo project. They must have recycled the boards from a previous project, as the Graffiti was non-sensical.

Scene from 1812, just before the war with America.
A representation of Fort Gibraltar, the Northwest Company post begins this mural.

Again, I am on Main Street dodging cars and sun, so I shot the mural in sections. I present them in order from left to right.

William McGillivray, chief director of the NWC followed by a Metis trapper.

Miles Macdonell, the appointed governor, proclaiming the land for Lord Selkirk. Feeling the earth, a Red River settler.

More Red River (Selkirk) settlers moving in. They were of The Hudson’s Bay Company and taking over from The Northwest Company. This is 1 of 5 historical murals at 1812 Main Street.

This image is from a mural that depicts an eerie calm in the days just before the War of 1812. A Red River Settler feels the earth for farming.
