Stadium
Scotiabank Arena
40 Bay St., Toronto, ON M5J 3A5
Sports and concert arena built around the preserved Art Deco facade of a nineteen forties postal terminal.
This guide to Scotiabank Arena in Toronto starts with the limestone carvings on the Bay Street wall, telling a story that has nothing to do with hockey or basketball. It traces the building's start as the 1939 Art Deco Toronto Postal Delivery Building, designed by Charles Dolphin and carved by stonemason Louis Temporale, whose panels showed mail trains, ships and messengers on horseback. A listening tip: look up at that carved wall before you head inside.
