Was one of those 250,000 kids. The only real vivid memory I have left of that unfortunately was seeing a Tour de France documentary in the IMAX screen they have. That was really incredible.

Haven't really followed the story closely, but quite sad to see it getting (forcefully?) shutdown like this.

And it’s a real IMAX dome screen, not the diluted version that gets the stamp these days.

I’m just glad I got to take my kids to the museum and watch a movie on the dome last year before it closed.

It wasn’t the full experience of the OSC that we had as kids. The walk across the bridge (also closed over structural concerns) and the gradual descent over the course of your visit into the Don Valley subconsciously tied science with the natural world.

The last half-decade, it was a shell of what it was.

I agree with you, taking the bus down to the bottom was pretty lame.
