In 1967, Star photographer Boris Spremo stood on the steps of Old City Hall and snapped this photograph of the south-west corner of Bay and Queen St., then dominated by the City Hall Branch of the Toronto-Dominion Bank. The Temple Building can be seen in the background. More than 50 years later the globe lights remain, the urn-like planters have gone and skyscrapers block the sun. Flashback Friday is an occasional series in which we revisit photos from The Star Archives, see more at facebook.com/TorontoStarArchives
