Historic Sites in Ajax

"Stop by Osgoode Hall for a quick visit. This heritage building houses the Ontario Court of Appeal, the Superior Court of Justice, and the Law Society of Ontario. But what makes it especially unique is the Great Law Library, which not only holds the largest private collection of legal material in Canada but also has an enchanting antique design. The wood paneling and spiral staircase retain all the old-world charm and elegance."

"Osgoode Hall is located right next to Nathan Phillips Square, and it’s always a neat spot for taking Instagram photos in Toronto. When the flowers bloom in the spring, Osgoode Hall is absolutely gorgeous!. Of course it’s pretty here all year round, but the vibrant spring flowers definitely make it even more special."

"Take a guided tour around Elgin & Winter Garden Theatres – Toronto’s best-kept secret. This double-decker theatre is the last operating one in the world, making it even more impressive!. Go behind-the-scenes at Elgin & Winter Garden Theatres to take a closer look and learn about its fascinating history. You will be surprised how different the old-fashioned Elgin Theatre is from the forest-like Winter Garden Theatre on the upper level."

"This restored masterpiece is the world's last operating Edwardian double-decker theater. Celebrating its centennial in 2013, the Winter Garden was built as the flagship for a vaudeville chain that never really took off, while the downstairs Elgin was converted into a movie house in the 1920s. Fascinating tours run Mondays at 5pm and Saturdays at 10am. "

"The Toronto Post Office was built sometime in the 1800s, and it served as a post office (duh) back in the day. It’s now a designated National Historic Site of Canada, and it’s a pretty building you won’t hear much about. You’ll find a few other beautiful Victorian-style buildings located on Toronto Street as well!"

"24-hour standby for students and the downtown crowd, established 1940. Richard Kim, co-owner: My family bought this location [on College Street] of Fran’s in the 90s. The previous owner, Francis Deck Jr., inherited all the restaurants from his father."
