Lesser recognized buildings in Toronto that you enjoy

Yorkdale Subway Station. Pics don't do any justice so I'm not posting.

And, while we're at it, Dupont station interior:

Oh, and, maybe this is a little too on-the-radar for this thread, but 55 Charles for sure.

I've always liked this one at 266 Sherbourne, though likely not a fantastic place to live:

Agreed on both accounts. Same goes for the 191-201 Sherbourne sisters:

Look even cooler in person from the street level.

[Avenue]

This atrium on Adelaide is underrated and beautiful, especially at night:

The bowstring arch at RCYC (bottom right)--a 60 year old(!) foreshadowing of Calatrava

I love Bancroft Ave as an ensemble, but Koffler House in particular gets no attention at all:

This is perhaps a bit too obvious (and, obviously, SFH), but the Barton Myers house at 19 Berryman.

And two of my favourite schools in the city:

Lord Lansdowne Junior and Senior Public School

And École secondaire catholique Saint-Frère-André:

Keep in mind that it only acquired its bright primary colours through recent renovations.

 

[44 North]

One that's always caught my eye but I know very little of is the domed section of Manulife on St Paul's Sq. Seems really neat, also the one to its north I'm noticing now too. There's probably a dozen more bldgs that I'm forgetting but this one thought could use a mention here.

And Leaside Towers has always been really pronounced just for how bloody large and monolithic they are. Thorncliffe area has a classic modern suburban style that has its charms.

On the topic of schools, I would add:

Carleton Village Junior and Senior Sports and Wellness Academy, 315 Osler St

The old Carleton Village school building just down the street on Osler has been converted to the 11 Division- Toronto Police Station.

Leaside Towers are definitely amazing. Shame about the location though (and rental instead of condo).
