The Prince Edward -lavatory closed when keeping it open cost $17 a flush, the Simcoes' Castle Frank, the City Adult Learning Centre, a mid-century modern masterpiece, palatial Bridgepoint rehab, with origins in the grim The House of Refuge, the Don Jail, Toronto's oldest occupied house, the home of Toronto's first Black Councillor and more.
