The Royal Ontario Museum ~

I almost didn't want to take this photo. It is the new addition to the R.O.M. - the Royal Ontario Museum on Bloor St. at University Ave.

I have to say, in my opinion, it's the ugliest thing I have ever seen in architecture. I don't know whose idea this was, which developers, politicians, etc. were involved.

The original building is a wonderful piece of architecture and it has been totally ruined with this addition of this monstrocity.

Next time I am in this area, I will take a photo of the front of this building and you will see what I mean.

 

See the notes, where I have pointed some of the original building.
