I am trying to verify where in Toronto some of the exterior shots from this 1973 CBC program were taken from. I have done some research, but would love it if anyone knows the exact location of some of these photos (and if they still exist today). Thank you.
The Forensic Lab is located on this strange street/parking area. The way the cars are parked, it is likely not a main road. It could be a side street, industrial estate or campus.
Note the distinctive building in the background. It looks similar to the Scott Library on the Keele Campus at York University and also Scarborough College, University of Toronto (see below) but there is no Google Map facility for these sites and so it is hard to get a good view. The edge of the building directly behind the police car looks like it is the corner of the building used as the location for forensic sciences.
Scott Library, York University - it would have been around in the early 1970s.
Scarborough College, University of Toronto – I believe it would have been around in the early 1970s.
The main building that houses the forensic sciences on the show
The best view that we have of the building that was used for forensic sciences. It has an institutional look about it – possibly an office block or an administration building.
