Photo: Yes This Was Sam the Record Man

You can still go to the spot I took this photo, at Yonge and Gould in downtown Toronto, but you can't see this anymore. Sam the Record Man is long gone - the spinning records in storage somewhere, the rest of the building knocked down to make room for new facilities at Ryerson University. This was taken back in November of 2008, more than a year after its closure and a few months before its demolition. From what I understand, the empty gap where it stood has yet to be filled.
