A Grand Entrance


This is Harbord Collegiate which is one of the older schools in the city. There was an older building but it was replaced with this one in 1931. A splendid entrance like this one should make you want to work hard and do your homework.

    I have always liked the Romanesque style of architecture, and this one is a classic.

    ...things were built in a grand style back then! My grand school had an entrance similar to this one. Thanks for sharing, take care.

    Gracious! 1931 must have been a tough year (I'm thinking of the Great Depression) to build a structure like this.
