Mel Lastman was the longtime mayor of North York - the neighborhood in Toronto where I currently reside. Apparently he was quite the popular politician as he has a whole square and amphitheater named for him! He even has this lovely bench. Maybe I'll see him sitting here one day...
PS: Hope you got your taxes done!

Very interesting and a nice bench shot! Please let me know, though, if you see that nice politician resting upon the bench!
Sure hope you get out to play golf soon. I think you showing signs of golf deprivation, a very serious illness which can be treated only with new clubs (you've already had the "doc" take care of that) and lots of playing time!
Nice!
taxes have been done for a while, yay!
It's a beautiful homage, and I like a lot this bench!

pour les impots pas encore en France, mais bientot malheureusement ;)))
I saw Mel walking on Yonge St just a while ago but he lives a lot further south near Yonge & St Clair so he may not use that bench!
Maybe someday I'll have a bench... Not!
A bench with a name and a story, this would be perfect for aBoB!
Mel Lastman is quite a character - charismatic and controversial. (His wife is too.) Lastman owns a company called Bad Boy Furniture.
Nice place to take a break.
This is someting for http://abunchofbenches.blogspot.com/ (I am there too... :)
Never much liked Mel....
but a 'square' in NY was sorely needed!
I could sit on this bench all day pondering the PEARLS Condo façade!
When my time comes, the family has standing instructions to donate a bench for me.

I hate the new word verification. Since I have trouble reading those "words", I am assuming others do too.
