At the Bugera Matheson Gallery, I fell in love with this particular piece of art by David Wilson entitled "The Other Side." It features the Flat Iron Building in Gas City. Coincidentally, it resembles with remarkable accuracy an intersection in Calgary, Alberta as well. Many cities across North America are proud to claim a flat iron building in their midst. Edmonton's own flat iron building sits at the intersection of Jasper Avenue and Gibson Block. It has changed ownership a few times since its original construction in 1913. You may read more about the history of flat iron buildings.

As my friend informed me about an inside joke she and her brother have about it being "Starbucks O'clock", we both lit up to see this piece called "On the Way There." She'd love to own this piece or purchase it for her brother!
