Someone hung these pigeon silhouettes on the fence of the former TTC streetcar yard at Lansdowne and Paton. There are a few other silhouettes hung on this fence too, adding a bit of life to the fence around this derelict property.
I'm not sure who the artist is, and I don't know the whole story behind it. When I took this photo, there were just a couple of silhouettes up, but now obviously alot more. I need to take more pics :)
I bet someone in the DIGIN crowd knows. I should ask them. I know it's come up in conversation before, but I can't remember the details. Certainly Giambrone's office would know too.

Silhouettes at Lansdowne/Paton
Hey Vic - did you ever learn how those silhouettes got there?? They're lovely, and I'm so curious about their origins.

Hi Vic! I asked this question
Hi Vic!
I asked this question of Torontoist and here's their reply: http://torontoist.com/2010/07/ask_torontoist_blansdowne_fence_makeover.php
The artists are Scott Eunson and Marianne Lovink. Very cool!
Joanna.
