"2 Beaumont Road."
QUOTE Mustapha.
The place looks like a dump.
It's a mystery to me why someone who owns a $4 million house couldn't replace a few window panes. It would cost maybe $400 in total.
It's somehow comforting, though, that even with all the furious renovation that's been going on in Rosedale these past few years, there are still available a few "handyman's specials".
I believe it belongs to Taylor Thomson. The Thomsons are not hard up for cash, but they do have a habit of leaving $4 million houses around to rot.
Taylor Thomson herself is an interesting lady.

k10ery, what an interesting piece of intelligence, and thought provoking Macleans article. I wonder how people in the public eye see themselves after reading something like this. Or perhaps they don't read coverage about themselves.
Anyways, the eccentricities of the rich living in run down houses makes for great human interest story reading. I suppose they feel they have nothing to prove in doing so - a kind of reverse status thing.
