From the Toronto Star
The Royal Ontario Museum will never be the same, neither will Toronto.
...
Libeskind beat out more than 50 architects from around the world with a striking proposal that will transform the complex at Bloor St. and Avenue Rd./Queen's Park into a 21st-century architectural landmark.
Though his submission leaves the Queen's Park facade untouched, the rest of the facility will be completely and startlingly changed. Most startling of all will be the Bloor front, which will resemble an explosion of glass.

Torontonians will have to wait for another time and place for their Frank Ghery moment, as
that world-famous Canadian architect has yet to make his mark on Toronto.
