What to expect from Gehry's AGO makeover

Archiseek / Canada / News / 2004 / January 28

Look for a spectacular multi-story tower extending the Art Gallery of Ontario into Grange Park on its south side and bringing the park visually into the gallery. And count on a new entrance on Dundas St. W., further west than the present entrance, on axis with the gallery's most revered old space, Walker Court. That's what to expect when Frank O. Gehry, the world's most celebrated architect, unveils his model this morning for what has been billed in an aggressive promotional campaign as "Transformation AGO."
