The Dalton School, 906 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON

Excerpt from theglobeandmail.com:

 

Rosedale institution Ridpath's Furnishings will close this summer after 104 years at its unique, Tudor-style Yonge Street location, the latest in a string of closures that is changing the floorplan of Toronto home design.

 

Ridpath's, which occupied a three-storey building at 906 Yonge St., just across from Canadian Tire near Davenport, has decorative half-timbering familiar to anyone who has seen an English pub.

 

The company, which was founded in 1907 by John Ridpath, is no longer family owned; it was sold after his death in the 1950s.
