Spadina House, as seen in Legoland's parallel universe


Here's Spadina House, as seen at Legoland Discovery Centre in Vaughan Mills.

When you look on the floor around the raised platform, you can read street names to help you figure out in what part of town you are.

Fun idea when visiting Spadina House

Before and after
We visited Spadina House recently. I found a great way to amuse the teens who were accompanying me. 

We took a picture of an old photo of the house, displayed inside, and tried to reproduce it. My young friends had a blast. Here's the result.

(By the way, I had never seen it and knew that it had been fully restored to its state in the 1920s. Well, don't go expecting Art Deco all over. As it was in the 20s still was pretty much Victorian. The decor is splendid!)
