What the Big Bop looks like today

It’s taken a while, and it’s going to take a while longer before it’s done, but the transformation of the Big Bop into a furniture store, CB2, is well underway. If you want a look inside, or to find out more, OpenFile got a peek in February, back when I was its Toronto Editor.

The more you know: the reason that the Toronto Standard’s got a billboard on the side of the building right beside the Big Bop, the Burroughes Building—you can see that billboard peeking over top of the scaffolding at the top-left of the photo—is that the owner of that building is their publisher. Their offices are inside.
