Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Big blocks at Harborfront '74; at foot of Bathurst St.; were attraction for Greg (top) and Brian MacIsaac with their father; Colin. One parent; Dr. Perry Cooper of Toronto; said Harborfront soon would become too popular. It's just great; but I think publicity is going to ruin it. That's why we're here now; he said.
