Southwood Secondary School

Southwood Secondary School is a high school in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada, for students in West Galt and North Dumfries. History Southwood was founded in 1962. It has one of the lower student enrollments in the region. Its success rates in the literacy test are 6% above the board average and 8% above the provincial average. A 2003 report from the Region of Waterloo to the school board said of the school: Southwood Secondary School’s culture is unique due to its student population being made up of students residing in an urban environment and a significant number of students from a rural environment. It is the only secondary school located in the west side of Galt-Cambridge to serve that community as well as the adjacent Township of North Dumfries. It became the subject of controversy in 2003 when it was perceived that this was an undersized school and should be closed, as funding was needed to build the Huron Heights Secondary School elsewhere in the Region. After lengthy protests, differing proposals, and the November 2003 municipal election, the trustees voted to reverse the decision of the previous board and keep Southwood open. Programs Southwood has music, drama and mathematics programs. Prior to the 2005/2006 school year, Southwood also hosted the area's French Immersion program, which has since moved to GCI. As of the 2006-2007 school year, Southwood has hosted the region's PAL program. Southwood has won several championships at the WCSSAA and CWOSSA levels in the last few years, notably in Volleyball, Basketball, Swimming and Cross Country. These teams have also participated at OFSAA. In 2007, the Sr. Boys Basketball Team won the AAA OFSAA championship. In 2013 and 2014 the Southwood Football team won a senior "B" division championship despite being a varsity team. In 2007, a group of students from Southwood were among a group of over 3,500 students from across Canada who travelled to Vimy Ridge to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the battle and restoration of the memorial. In 2019, a group of students from Southwood's Drama Club performed Sometimes I Look Up to the Sky, their official National Theatre School Drama Festival submission for the year, at district, regional and provincial levels. They received awards, including: The school was quoted by local author Joel Rubinoff in The Record: "To emphasize the significance of this year's ranking, out of 360 performances across Ontario, the NTS provincial showcase features the 12 best. Southwood is the only school in Waterloo Region to make it this far."

Spadina Hotel

The Spadina Hotel was one of the names of the hotels operated at 460 King Street West, in Toronto, at the corner of Spadina Avenue and King Street. The hotel was built in late 1873, the three storey Victorian building featuring a small clock on the east facade. A four-storey annex was later built to the north of the hotel. It has been known by at least half dozen names, and has had many proprietors. It is now a commercial office building including a programming school. History Initially the hotel was owned by James Richardson, and known as Richardson House. Robert Falconer acquired it in 1906, and renamed it the Hotel Falconer. Charles Zeigler acquired it in 1914, and renamed it the Zeigler′s Hotel. In 1917 the Chartered Trust and Executor Company foreclosed on the hotel′s mortgage. The property was transferred to the Imperial Bank of Canada. According to a 1917 report in the Financial Post, at the time of the foreclosure the building was worth $12,500 CAD. According to the Financial Post the next hotel to open in the building was a ″temperance hotel″. Toronto Sun columnist Mike Filey speculated that the 1917 change of name from the Zeigler Hotel to the Hotel Spadina was to counter prejudice against German names during World War I. The Hotel operated under the names Hotel Spadina, or Spadina Hotel for the next eighty years. In 1982 Douglas Martin, of the New York Times, described the hotel′s bar as a ″cozy, mainly working-class bar″, while he reported Canadians' reaction to one of Pierre Trudeau's speeches. Over its history it has been home to many notable residents. In the 1960s and 1970s it was a centre of the Queen Street West music scene, and saw such visitors as Leonard Cohen and the Rolling Stones. On the second level, the Cabana Room was a central venue to the strip. The Jack Nicholson film The Last Detail was also partially filmed at the hotel. According to the National Post, Ernest Hemingway, who was a reporter for the Toronto Star before he became a famous writer, used to stay there. They reported that Leonard Cohen and the Tragically Hip used to perform there. According to the BC Music Review, it was also one of the venues of Toronto's punk scene. The hotel was renamed the Global Village Backpackers in 1997 and the once seedy hotel became a welcoming youth hostel to Toronto, Ontario. With 190 beds (four people per room) it was the largest youth hostel in Toronto. The hostel closed on January 20, 2014. In July 2014, Allied Properties Real Estate Investment Trust announced it was in negotiations to purchase the Hotel and the property it sat on. When the purchase was finalized in November 2014 Allied completed its ownership of all the properties between King and Adelaide. After its purchase, Allied clad the building in scaffolding, and began repairs to the facade, which had fallen into disrepair. Konrad Group announced the launch of a new "innovation hub" at the iconic corner in 2015. The "hub" is the home and headquarters for BrainStation, Konrad Group's digital and technology training arm.

Spencer Engineering Building

The Alexander Charles Spencer Engineering Building, known as Spencer Engineering Building (SEB) is the main building of engineering faculty in University of Western Ontario. The Dean's office, Mechanical and Materials Engineering Department and Civil and Environmental Engineering Departments are in this building. The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department as well as the Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Department reside in the Thompson Engineering Building, which was opened in 2004. History There became an increased need for an engineering-specific building on the Western campus ever since the establishment of the Department of Engineering Sciences in 1954. After much deliberation, construction began in early 1958 and was finished by April 1959. The cost of construction was totalled at $1.75 million. $500,000 of this cost was donated by Major General Alexander Charles Spencer. After being presented with this large donation, the Western Board of Governors agreed that the building would bear his name. The building was built next to the Cronyn Observatory and built slightly on the edge of the expanding campus, away from the Faculty of Sciences buildings. There is some indirect evidence to suggest that this was done deliberately to help the new building and faculty develop their own 'character' and not be influenced by other already successful science-based programs, although this is debated speculation. The building was designed by architect Ronald Murphy. Notes

As part of downtown Toronto's PATH network, Atrium's Concourse Level is directly connected underground to the TMU subway station, the Toronto Eaton Centre south, across on Dundas Street. A now-closed underground tunnel connects the Atrium to the former Toronto Coach Terminal located west, across Bay Street. In 2011, H&R Real Estate Investment Trust purchased the property from Hines Interests Limited Partnership who acquired it in 2007 from a joint venture of Brookfield Properties and The Ellman Companies. In January 2014, H&R received a zoning variance from the Toronto City Council which would allow it to add five floors to each of the office towers, expand the ground level to enclose areas now filled by a covered arcade, planters and seating areas and create additional retail space and to redesign a media tower at the southwest corner of the structure. The Atrium houses the first Canadian location of Muji, as well as Long Tall Sally, Canada Post, Red Lobster and Rexall among other shops. The building features a variety of sit-down restaurants and a food court on the Concourse Level. Major office tenants include the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, and various arms of the Government of Ontario, including the Land Registry Office, and the Lottery Prize Claiming Centre for the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, located on ground level. Atrium was filmed and used as a set for scenes in a shopping mall in the Canadian drama Flashpoint on the CTV Television Network. The interior was also used in the 1983 PBS TV movie Overdrawn at the Memory Bank. References External links Atrium Toronto Official Site Atrium Toronto at Urbandb
