1931 – Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto, Ontario
1845 – Former Commercial Bank of Midland, Toronto, Ontario
Architect: William Thomas
Dismantled, moved from its original site, and reassembled to front a modern office building placed in the weird surroundings of Santiago Calatrava’s Galleria at BCE Place. The former Commercial Bank of Midland has a fine Palladian facade with projecting end bays and is styled after an Italian palazzo.
