Citytv Symbolic Truck Removed From CHUM-City Building

Published July 3, 2007 @ 09:24 in Toronto News ~ Toronto Focus

citytvIt ain't the Sam's Yonge Street facade, but it's noteworthy. They're taking down the Citytv today, or maybe tomorrow. You know that truck that appears to be bursting out of the side of the building on Queen and John.

We saw this coming when Rogers announced Citytv was leaving the CHUM-City building. It was neat seeing that truck up there, but it doesn't ignite the passion in the belly that would cause you to scream and shout until Rogers promised to leave it be. It's their truck, they can remove it if they like.

The more things change...

"A final twist for those advocating the truck is saved: Ms. MacDonald said “the most effective way for them to do that is through their local councillor,” who happens to be former City TV reporter Adam Vaughan."

How's that for serendipity?

Toronto is getting good at saving stuff like this. First we saved the Sam's facade, now we'll likely save this truck... what other crap should we save?

A CTV employee told me they can't remove the truck as there are a whole lot of ibars supporting it which go deep into the building itself.
