Port Credit














This is god-damn wonderful.  Traditional planning would have all these homes backing onto the lake so the developer can fetch a premium, and six or so families can say they live on the lake.  The rest of the community may never have direct access, or ever get to use the area or enjoy the view.  
Arranging the homes so they face a road as they've done here in Port Credit Mississauga gives the entire community access, and the assholes at the front still get an amazing view. 
 

Don't tell anyone, but this blog is actually about hip-hop music

According to my brother, "the concrete jungle" has some hip-hop connotations that I should be aware of before naming my blog (too late).  I'm not changing the name.  I looked it up on Wikipedia and the only parallels it draws are between cities (Yes!) and Bob Marley (which I'm okay with.  If you have a problem with Bob Marley, there is probably something wrong with you).  So all is well, crisis averted, this is not a blog concerned with hip-hop, Wikipedia wouldn't lie about that.  Now let's get down to business.
