Layout Tour #5 - Yonge and Front Streets

 The Dominion Public Building is the largest structure on this side of Toronto.  It is kitbashed and scratch built using a couple Walthers Post Office kits and a few sheets of styrene put though my cutting machine.

The Dominion Public Building houses many government offices.  The GO Transit Bus Terminal is in the Dominion Public Building's backyard.

  

The tallest building in the neighborhood is the Esplanade high rise. I really like the kit, enough so that there are actually two of them on the layout.  This is the Gas & Electric Building made by Custom Model Railroads, the company that makes 95% of the skyscrapers on the entire layout.

On the corner, diagonal from each other are two well-known Toronto landmarks. First, The Sony Centre, a large performing arts center.  This has been selectively compressed to fit in an angled part of the backdrop.  

On the other side of Front Street is the Hockey Hall of Fame.  This was a kitbash that still needs a few more details out front.

Exiting the city is the Scott Street Tower.  It's duplicate of the John Street Tower, but this one has a pitched roof.   This is the interlocking tower for the east end of the Union Station corridor.

A couple of Toronto Terminals Railway work the Scott Street Interlocking Tower.
