One would think than any building with the name Royal in it would stand taller, higher, and prouder than it's neighbours.
Although the Royal York used to be a landmark on the Toronto skyline, today she simply lends a touch of elegance to a cold and dreary downtown.
"For art to exist, for any sort of aesthetic activity to exist, a certain physiological precondition is indispensable: intoxication." Friedrich Nietzsche
