Sights of Bytown: Piano in the Market

Piano in the Market - Dwight Williams

Taken in April 2012, on the Juno Awards weekend in the ByWard Market. The piano has since been moved slightly to protect it from the summer elements whilst remaining outdoors and accessible. To the best of our current knowledge, this is the last piano standing anywhere in the streets of Ottawa where members of the public can musically experiment at will.

Update – 13 July 2012: Unfortunately, the piano has since been removed from the Market Building.
