Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: A streetcar named Desire. An old Toronto Transit Commission streetcar, bought for about $250, is now a boutique selling women's clothing on Dundas St. just west of Yonge. It has been painted red and decorated with its name, Desire, and a white picket fence. But it hasn't left the rails-it is still on the tracks, although it's in a parking lot.
