Great Homes from Toronto's Past

Today we toured the former homes, the Casa Loma and Spadina House, of two wealthy influential financiers from the early 20th century history of Toronto, Sir Henry Pallatt who's home was never completely finished before misfortune befell him, and Albert Austin who's home served multiple generations of the family until 1982. Both homes are now works in progress museums restored to reflect their heydays as some of the most lavish noteworthy dwellings of their days.
