Allen Lambert Galleria (Architectural Perfection) / Click for Previous
The Allen Lambert Galleria is gorgeous. My previous shots don't really give you an idea of just how much natural light comes in through the massive glass roof. After all, any time you can shoot (in what is technically) indoors at 4pm with a Holga, you know there's gotta be a lot of available light around.

The BCE Place Website unfortunately makes this architectural wonder sound rather mundane: "the Galleria is a six-storey, glass covered, climate controlled thoroughfare from Bay to Yonge Street. It is 85 feet high, 45 feet wide, and 380 feet long". Thanks Ben! Snore.

Update: As my favourite piece of architecture in the financial district (where I of course spend the bulk of my days), this urban cathedral is also my submission for the Photo Friday "perfection" theme.
