Demolition by decay is a classic Toronto strategy. The province also let the Ontario Science Centre get run down, too, and Ford's plan to build new, diminished one at Ontario Place is pure scam. Fortunately, the old OSC building still survives and there's a chance it can be revived/repurposed. Also fortunate is that the latest design proposal for the new building is far less hideous than the previous one — but still doomed to look gimmicky and dated by the time it's built. This province is run by people who think their ignorant gut feelings are as good as anyone's educated analysis (but still want all the benefits of a modern, high-tech society). @AskPippa
