The late-Modernist building was built by developer Cadillac Fairview. It was the only major office tower built in Toronto during the mid-1990s, a period between the early decade real estate bubble and the building boom of the 21st century. As a special project The Globe and Mail reporter Mary Gooderham spent two years covering the construction, writing some 110 columns on the subject. These were later compiled into a book titled A Building Goes Up: The Making of a Skyscraper. It is the head office for Workplace Safety & Insurance Board. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simcoe_Place en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_... |
