I think it's in Toronto.  In the mid-60's we photographed the TTC Bloor
St. line before the subway replaced it.  We also covered the Queen St.
line which was well lighted at night and easy to photograph near the
Victoria Park loop.  Anyway, we weren't big on making advance
reservations, and after a long day on the TTC we'd start looking for "No
Vacancy" signs at motels east of the loop.  I recall a motel there that I
always saw as the Havana Motel, but on closer inspection the sign was
hypenated, and the motel name was really "Hav-a-nap".
