SUMMARY:North Toronto Historical Society (Virtual): Adelaide Street with Marta O'Brien
DESCRIPTION:Once home to upscale residences and important public services\, Adelaide Street’s buildings later housed light industries such as publishing. There are still examples of the detached and row housing that dominated west of Yonge in the late 1800s. The financial district extends to Adelaide and the condo scene here is ever-changing as architectural historian Marta O’Brien will illustrate. \n\nREGISTER AFTER 1 NOVEMBER \nEmail membership@northtorontohistoricalsociety.org and we will send you an invitation with details.

SUMMARY:North Toronto Historical Society (Virtual): Sir Frederick Banting: The Man You Thought You Knew
DESCRIPTION:“Insulin was but a means to an end\,” wrote Frederick Banting. Grant Maltman\, curator of Banting House in London\, Ontario\, will highlight insulin’s centenary\, and also show that there was far more than this Nobel Prize winning discovery in Banting’s life and career: his service in both World Wars\, his use of art as an escape\, and his role as a catalyst for Canada’s military and medical research programmes. \n\nREGISTER AFTER 1 SEPTEMBER \nEmail membership@northtorontohistoricalsociety.org and we will send you an invitation with details.
