Sitting on top of the world

RBCOn my lunch break today, I took a quick trip to the corner of Wellington and Simcoe to explore the new RBC Dexia building (pictured right). My, er, feelings toward the building aside, I had heard the top floors were still unoccupied and easy to explore and I had been looking forward to visiting it for weeks. So, today, I had an excellent view whilst I sat cross-legged and ate my sandwich:

not my office

This is the corner of Front and University

There's more under the cut, if'n y'like...

And yes, I do wish I had picked a brighter, clearer day to take photos, but the gently falling snow and an office building that was silent except for my own footsteps made for a really peaceful atmosphere. It was a memorable moment in the middle of a typically stressful day.
