553 — CN Tower (Charcoal Ink)

CHF 23.06

Canada by the Numbers. A series about the figures that actually built this country, and this is the first one.

Toronto has a height, and almost nobody knows it. 553 metres, concrete at the base to the tip of the antenna, which is a strange thing to hold in your head until you're standing at the bottom looking straight up.

I stood there, and the tower shot on this shirt is mine. Taken from the base at that angle, because nothing else makes the number feel like anything. Then we pushed it back behind the numeral so it reads like fog rolling in rather than a photograph slapped on a shirt.

The back says METRES ABOVE TORONTO. By that point you either know or you're asking.
