Erstwhile Vespasiennes at Philip's Square

The site of the urinal scene in Vespasiennes has been filled in since the 1980s -- apparently, precisely because of such scenes East of the Big Q by John Woolfrey ! While waiting for the bus home to Nuns' Island two weeks ago, I took some pics of what's left of it -- and noshed on some maple sugar for sale at the kiosque on the site.
