Good photos (I had no idea there was a marker for the old Ex stadium 2nd base).

Those pictures look very cold. It's why I don't believe Paul B's probably joking statement that if TFC were in the CCL, they would play in BMO in February.

I understand why the fence is there now. It should help the defense with keeping the ball on the field rather then kicking it out of play.

I was just down a BMO today.
I'm working at the Artist Project at the Queen Elizabeth Building.
I got to see the progress on the North Stand.
Nice to see there actually is a North Stand now.
Didn't have a chance to take a close look though.
Maybe tomorrow
