The Thimble is a sculpture representing Toronto's Fashion District, which has several multi-storey Art Deco buildings that formerly housed businesses that manufactured clothing. Three such buildings are the Fashion Building on the south side of Richmond Street, and the Tower and Balfour buildings on the NW and NE corners of Spadina Ave and Adelaide St. On the SE corner, there is a plaque describing the latter two buildings.
