Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: New College; a new student residence occupying a full block on Spadina Ave.; looks like any other rectangular building among the drab structures that make up the University of Toronto. But within the building is a large interior courtyard that is bounded by a completely free-form wall-an undulating; wiggly surface broken only by deeply-recessed strip windows. This is a costly kind of structure; says architect Harvey Cowan; but a humanitarian one. And who knows? Maybe this is one answer to the student rebellion.
