A Modernist steel-and-glass jewel box for sale
It’s curious: in my 20 years of writing about architecture for Globe Real Estate, I don’t recall ever dreaming about a building. Sure, getting lost or missing an exam at York University, or my childhood home, but those don’t count.
However, a few nights ago I had a long and involved dream about 50 Park Rd., that modernist, steel-and-glass jewel box that has stood sentry over the sloping, lush greenery of Lawren Harris Park since 1954.
