Rainbow at Main & Terminal
On Tuesday evening I was walking by the Ivanhoe Hotel and it was raining and the sun was shining. I thought, "There's gonna be a rainbow." By the time I got to Main & Terminal, there it was.

Strathcona Rainbow

This afternoon at around 4:15, a rainbow appeared in the direction of Strathcona. This photo was taken from Union St. & Main. Later, another faint rainbow appeared beside the first.
The red building in the background is Solheim Place, subsidized housing which I believe was named after Olaf Solheim. Solheim was a guy about 86 years old who was evicted just before Expo 86 from the Downtown Eastside hotel room he had lived in for a couple of decades. He died shortly after he got evicted and became a symbol of the social cost of Expo evictions.
