Originally built in 1910 with later additions in 1923 and 1949, the façade boasts neoclassical elements including: columns, pediments, crenellations, a copper copula, an empty niche, and a heraldic crest over the front door. Its front entrance hosts a military memorial, and the foyer is decorated with elaborate ceiling details, a chandelier, and three semicircular lunette paintings depicting the development of the book over the course of human history.","Classes have been held here since 1910, but not everything is always about the lessons. Delve into the school's history, including an interactive display at the school's WWI memorial inside the front entrance. Visitors can enjoy three lunette mural paintings depicting the 'Evolution of the Book' by artist John White Alexander. Find out why these particular three paintings were chosen from a series of six; the originals of which hang in the Library of Congress. Explore the auditorium and classrooms to see what has and hasn't changed in education over the past century.","No","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","",""],

Five floors of labs, classrooms and collaboration spaces are dedicated to gaining a better understanding of the earth's history and its future, its changing climate and the challenge of sustainability. As befits the work taking place here, this 110,000 sq. ft. facility set on the edge of a wooded ravine is strongly rooted in technologically-advanced sustainable design solutions, including: Earth Tubes, geothermal boreholes, storm water capture and a green roof that is solar renewable-ready. Labs and offices connect around a sky-lit forum that is a crossroads encouraging collaboration and exchange. The building is on track for LEED Gold certification.","Visitors will have the chance to enjoy the adjacent Earth Tube Plaza and Toronto's first green fire lane. Tours showcase the building's sustainable features and introduce U of T Scarborough activities that develop the knowledge, talent and leadership needed to better understand the changing planet, and help solve the enormous environmental and resource challenges facing the world. At 11:00am on Saturday, hear historian and author Barbara Dickson share a piece of Scarborough's history.

It opened in the fall of 2015. The building is the home of the student Renaissance Engineer, a creative problem solver and entrepreneurial leader with a social conscience. Its cloud-like triangular glass façade stands bold, composed of a series of triangles positioned according to a custom-designed algorithm. Because of the reflection of light and pattern across campus, the building has been nicknamed 'the Cloud.' Inside, the five-story building houses Design Commons for fostering entrepreneurial ideas. A massive multi-storey materials testing lab provides an unprecedented hands-on approach to both learning and teaching.","Visitors can expect an inspiring and all-encompassing environment. The building's labs, collaborative spaces and social areas will be open to the public. Experience the stunning façade, reflecting natural light and vistas of western Toronto from the Bergeron Centre rooftop space. Tours of the building will be available for interested visitors, highlighting both the architectural elements and the educational benefits of the new space. There will be activities for adults and children where they will be encouraged to take part in the 'maker culture' that Lassonde School of Engineering is building. These activities will inspire and draw out visitors' inner engineer.","No","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","",""]
