Summary: From the dust jacket - "Toronto Observed is urban history with a difference, concentration on the visual aspects of the city : the buildings, old and new, that give its character ; what they have. meant, and mean, in its life; and the people who ordained and financed them. William Dendy's Lost Toronto (1978) was an elegy for architectural treasures that have been lost. Toronto Obersved discusses many of those. that are still with us, as well as a wide selection of fairly recent ones - buildings as disparate as the Yorkdale Subway station and Roy Thomson Hall. "
