Along with many other people, I have been watching the demolition on the southeast corner of Dundas & Sumach streets, part of the Regent Park redevelopment. This 14 storey apartment building was designed by Peter Dickinson; it was built in the late 1950s.
January 31st, 2015
I first saw this building being demolished on a grey day at the end of January.
I’m not sure when the demolition actually started.

It would have been a cold job, working outside during the coldest February on record.
