Default ATTN: Artists! Easy Task for a 40k to 70k prize

Alright, I'm doing an English presentation on Architectural Structures using skills such as interpretations, personification, blah blah...
(it's worth a lot) that's why I'm trying to do my best on it.

And I thought that if I deconstructed the whole architecture and reconstructed it according to how it looked like in 1920-30s it would help me and also the teacher/students to see where I'm bringing my interpretations on the piece from.

Anyways, All I want you to do is just draw a sketch of the Princess Park located at 5095 Yonge St, Toronto, Ontario, the way you think it would've looked about 70 years ago

It's simple, don't overdo it, just include the following things and you'll get 40k or even more if it looks really awesome.


Instructions:

1. The clock tower in the middle used to be a fire-hall in 1940 so make sure you don't draw a clocktower, draw the firehall. Below, there is a picture of it back in 1957.

how it looks like now:



2. The mall located besides the fire-hall(clock tower), used to be a municipal building in 1923, so take the ENTIRE complex out of the picture and just draw a sketch of this:

how it looks like now:




3. Draw a road between the two,



In other words, draw a sketch of a road between a fire hall (that looks like the picture I showed), and a municipal building.

Here's a bunch of pictures to help you see the structures from every angle.


The clocktower:

The mall:

The Road between them:


The inside of the mall:

Top view of the whole site:





Must be done by tonight

Prizes:
40k - for a nice, decent looking sketch of the 3
50k - same thing with more details
50-70k - if you add old cars/people in it with extensive details that would impress my teacher.

Yes. Just put in 5095 Yonge St, Toronto, Ontario on Google Maps and move the little orange thingy on the street and turn around, you'll see the clock tower and everything.


ahh, My class starts at 12:00 in the morning tomorrow, if you could it by then it will work, but I doubt it lol.

OH YOU MEAN PEOPLE! lol jk
If this was a presentation for a tech course it would make sense that I'm trying to get marks and etc.. but it's for english!

99% of the presentation is actually me interpreting the architectural piece. I just want the sketch so I can show my teacher where the **** I'm getting all these interpretations from lol. and I can't even draw a stick man to be honest that's why i want someone else to do it.

A half assed sketch is actually very appreciated too!

Doing this properly is hardly an easy task and given the work and deadline the reward is laughable, no offense.
