That 'ugly blue LEGO looking building' is actually Rydges Hotel on the corner of Hay & King. Its amazing what a lick of paint and a ground floor renovation can do!

Edit; The old bus terminal on Wellington St brings back memories. My grandmother used to take me into the city on the bus as a kid, the smell of ciggarettes, dough-nuts and diesel fumes is a awesome combination!
mmm memories of 5 dough-nuts for a buck & catching the 268 back to scabs

Well, I'm amazed! I genuinely thought that old shit building was long gone. There are some clever architects around to carry out that makeover!
