Summary[edit]

Description

Postal Station K at 2384 Yonge Street just north of Eglinton Avenue. The stunning edicfice is a great example of stripped classicism with Art Deco touches. The building opened in 1936 as the Dominion Public Building with a design by architect Murray Brown. A rare insignia of King Edward VIII, who reigned for eleven months, appears above the entrance. The building also stands on the site of Montgomery's Tavern, where William Lyon Mackenzie rallied his supporters during the rebellion of 1837. The site has long been a gathering place and there is now a plan to retain the building when the site to the rear is developed as a condominium.
