Incidentals

At Front Street and Jarvis, across from the St. Lawrence Market, a 19th Century flagstone sewer under the "north market" unearthed during redevelopment excavations, awaiting its fate. July 2017.

Fate decided: the sewer is also demolished. March 2018.

Our busy vacation schedule includes having friends over for dinner on Saturday. On Wednesday I went to the St. Lawrence Market to pick up a rabbit to make stew.

As I always do, I checked in on the old flagstone sewer that, along with other historically significant remnants such as meat hooks, animal remains and glass, had been holding up the construction of a new north market that was to have been completed in 2014.

I guess they have all the information they need. The pipe is almost all gone.

Thanks for reading!
