As a respected member of UT, with over 10, 000 posts, what is it that you see in this building?? Is it just a heritage, preservation of a period thing?
It seems pretty bland and unadorned, and it's not like some Penn Station, or Beaux Arts masterpiece. Toronto had lost a lot of it's heritage, but does that mean save anything?
I get preserving, but not at all costs. Tearing down this in favor of a great looking , high density condo ??? Seems a win?
Perhaps there's a story I don't know about this building, an architect or a first of some kind??
