Platespin – Toronto Bomb Factory?

Filed under: Uncategorized — dto @ 7:17 pm

I was working in Toronto at our PlateSpin office and it turns out the building used to be a bomb factory. Instead of tearing it down, they built around it and incorporated the old artifacts, walls, and floors, with modern high-tech style. It is a very cool building – but just a little odd.

The door pictured here is an original from the factory. It is a huge and heavy self-closing door. I’m not quite sure what it was for, but it is quite unique.
