What Alison saw over the fence (10 photos)

The trouble with most of the pictures we've seen of the Memorial Gardens demolition is that annoying wooden fence in front of the project. Last week, SooToday.

The trouble with most of the pictures we've seen of the Memorial Gardens demolition is that annoying wooden fence in front of the project.

Last week, SooToday.com assigned Tyler Simpson to try to get onto one of the rooftops across the street to see whether we could get a birdseye perspective.

Tyler dropped in to see Alison Walton at the Tiny Bubbles shop at 246 Queen Street with this request.

But Tyler Simpson is a strapping lad.

And to make a long story short, he was a little too strapping to fit through the tiny space that led to the roof.

Well, the less-strapping Alison Walton went up herself and snapped some terrific pictures with help from building owner Bill Watts.
