Jail cells. Keeping them close together like that makes it easier for the prisoners, er, residents to spy on and tattle on each other.

Hey! That's the suburb just north of Toronto. A green belt legislation was recently imposed around Toronto to stop this sort of thing.

It's a computer generated image. Reflections from real windows don't create bright spots in shadows like that.

Crap, I've been through there, our very own country! I'm running out of soul.

Vancouver. A marginal improvement.

Oh, ok, phew! It had me worried there for a minute. Imagine a place like that actually existing in reality!

So, then, I wonder what that section of Markham *really* looks like. Google Earth anyone?

The reflections in the 'photo' are most likely created by optical caustics bounced from the adjacent glass windows. Cheaper, thinner glass can have distortions that create this, as well as shitty fitting frames. Windows installed to tightly can create distortion as well.

Looks like a lot of places around here. Look up Fontana, CA (92335) in google earth and I'm sure you'll see a lot of that.

Well at least secretia can always pick colors for us.
