I like how this picture makes you wonder about the man sitting there. Everybody else is in their own world, but he is observant.

Magnificent shot. Great capture.

Great street view, it's interesting to see all this people ignoring the sitting man.

Interesting building. I'd really like to see more pictures of it, especially the doors and frieze. Does the building have a name that I can google?

I believe the building forming the background to this photo is the Toronto Stock Exchange. In keeping with this business/financial theme, I wonder if person sitting in the photo has any idea that he has ironically set up his "business enterprise", at the site of Canada's "Temple of Capitalism"?
As they say in real estate: Location, Location, Location.

Toni and Martin: Former Stock Exchange, I'm afraid. Fortunately the new occupant (Design Exchange) has preserved the old building inside and out very well. As for the Stock Exchange, its present home is one big yawn.

The building is the OLD stock exchange, now used as the Toronto Design Centre.
The balance, and colours in this photo are wonderful Sam.
