Given what happened on campus and the broader neighbourhood in general, I am sure their graves had been turned a long, long time ago. In any case, it looks quite fine to me.

U of T is the most picturesque campus in Canada. As they look down on us from the heavens, the founding fathers must be proud that their university is one of the finest on the planet. All its buildings are among the best of their eras. But U of T must still go further as a university. That's why the Boundless campaign is so important--to keep moving the university forward in the world.

^ I'd put Queens over UofT, personally. Not to take away from UofT though, it is beautiful.

Having attended both universities, I would without hesitation say that U of T has the more picturesque campus.

Great pics!

This building has a fascinating interior layout, and I'm looking forward to seeing it during the Pan Ams.

I'm on the fence with this one. It'll come down to those little, final details.

Is the roof flat? Any chance/possibility that they could put temporary bleachers up there for stadium events?

I doubt it? It looks like there's a scrim that rises above the roofline. If you sat up there you'd be looking at the backside of cladding. (And you'd be sat beside that big ugly HVAC unit. Seriously, are they going to hide that thing?)

any idea why the black horizontal fencing comes down to block the tops of the windows?

My vote goes to UBC in Vancouver. Have you seen that campus and setting?
