A 1960s Treasure

 

Directly across Avenue Rd, where I showed you the Art Deco apartment building a week ago, is this wonderful apartment building from 1965. Designed by architect Uno Prii it is one of many that he designed in the city especially in the Annex neighbourhood. A lot of them have heritage protection but I am not sure about this one. Click the Uno Prii label below to see more of his designs.

    It's actually beautiful in a different way.

    Great looking building. In 1965 it must have looked very futuristic.

    Most creative design for an apartment building. I hope this one also has heritage protection.

    To my surprise, I like it. I expect it is quite nice inside.
