Wait, what? It’s the new jail building that they’re demolishing, right? Not the old one?

I'd think that there would be an uproar if that happened! Part of the $1.2B budget has been on the restoration of the Old Don Jail. So yes, it's the meaningless building attached to the Old Don Jail that's being demo'd.

Does any one know if they've started demolishing Toronto Jail yet? I'd love to go over and snap some photos

I believe it's already largely gone.

It was half gone by noon yesterday.

I'm going tomorrow! I hope there's enough time! lol

The demolition is still underway, though it's a bit hard to take photos through the fence. I took a couple photos today: http://www.riverdaler.ca/2014/photos-of-the-don-jail-demolition/

Thanks kotsy for the pics and update

Unlike the last demolition on this site, I'm unequivocally happy to see this one go.

Welcome, guys. Here's the following day

Here are some photos that I took yesterday. It looks like at this rate it will be completely gone this week: http://www.riverdaler.ca/2014/east-wing-of-don-jail-almost-gone/
