Original Toronto Star caption: Then and now: When award-winning Star photographer Boris Spremo took the top photograph form the entrance to Old Fort York back in 1962; the Toronto skyline was dominated by the Bank of Commerce; then the tallest building in the British Empire. Yesterday; 21 years later; Spremo returned to the scene and took the same shot - in which the Empire's tallest building is completely obscured by skyscrapers.
