These incredible steel doors are found on the Globe and Mail (Canada's largest national newspaper) building on Front St. Originally installed in 1937 at the King St offices, the doors were rescued when that building was demolished in 1974 and then placed at the new building. They are wonderful - such super Deco details!

Was great that these lovely old doors were rescued and live on in the new building. So often our shared history gets thrown out with the trash. Thanks for visiting my Leeds daily photo and your comments. Paul
Very impressive indeed. Love the art deco look.
Wow. Those are wonderful art deco doors. I'm glad they saved and redeployed them.
Eyeliquor - I couldn't find any info on the designer - maybe because the original building is gone.
Very impressive.
Superb. That era had such style.
