Last night, a splendid gathering of Toronto’s architectural and heritage community feted the publication of "Toronto Edwardian: Frank Darling, Architect of Canada’s Imperial Age" in the delightful ballroom of the old Christie mansion (now Regis College).

Remarks by Tamara Anson-Cartwright, Michael McClelland, and the book’s author, David Winterton, were rousingly concluded with a woodwind duet performed by students from the Glenn Gould School.

Thank you to all who joined us for the book launch and for helping inaugurate our new favourite cocktail, the Darling Fizz! The first monograph on Frank Darling is published by McGill-Queen’s University Press and proudly supported by ERA Architects.
