CN Tower part deux - a photo on Flickriver

CN Tower part deux

            Located downtown in Toronto Canada, the CN Tower opened in 1975 and was the tallest free-standing structure until September 12, 2007. It attracts more than 2 million visitors a year and has a restaurant on the very top. Yes, you can actually climb the stairs to get up there if you'd like, although the elevator is much more common. The original name of this landmark was the Canadian National Tower, named after the Railway that built the tower. After 1995, the abbreviation now stands for Canada's National Tower as ownership was passed on to the Canada Lands Company. This view is from a train leaving the main train yard. I originally took this picture in the mid-90's. it's all scratched up so after scanning it into my computer I had to play around with it a little.
