Original Toronto Star caption: Power play: A helicopter delicately picks its way among new hydro transmission towers at Yonge St. and Highway 7 in Richmond Hill. The whirlybird is used to string the electrical conductor wire between the towers after they have been erected. Traditionally considered and eyesore, the towers often straddle gardens and parking lots below. Reporter Evan Leibovitch has found they're necessary but a little imagination could make the network a lot more sightly.
