The Rogers Centre, a baseball stadium and hotel, opened in 1989. It was designed by Rod Robbie and Michael Allen. It originally included a hotel, but that has been sold separately.

Summer 2012

After the ice storm of 2013. The original title said this was taken on December 16, 2013, but it was actually taken on Dec. 22. A second ice storm followed a couple of days later. The PiP at top left shows another view from the same storm. ----- Several people have commented about the cold, so I'll try to clarify that. You usually get an ice storm when the ground temperature is just below 0°C and a layer of air warmer than 0°C passes above it. Rain falls through the cold air and freezes whenever it lands. So it isn't that cold, but problems develop if it stays cold near the ground, and it did in Southern Ontario. As Kenneth and Keith have noted, this ice was spectacularly thick, and it took down trees and power lines.
