The revamped Spadina Circle is more than just a new home for the Daniels Faculty; it’s a new look for the city. “It’s more than twice the size of our current building, there’s going to be a much greater degree of transparency between one activity and another, and it’s going to have a position at the head of a major avenue in Toronto.” –Richard Sommer, Dean, John H.
