V is for Variety Store

Location: Harbord Street and Roxton Road

We’ve decided that it might be fun to create our own version of Allan Moak’s A Big City Alphabet over the next year, taking photographs in imitation of the pictures in the book (with the addition of a Harriet, of course, which Moak so foolishly forgot to include). Some of the letters will be simpler to recreate than others (I is for Island Ferry vs. H is for Horses), Y is for Yuletide and O is for October will rely on time of year, and it also means we’re going to have to visit the Science Centre and the Zoo. It should be a fun way to make a connection between Harriet, books, and this city we’re so lucky to live in. Today we took our very first shot, which was particularly easy to come by: V is for Variety Store.
