Trinity
College, U of T |
Located on Hoskin
Avenue, Trinity College was designed by architects Darling and Pearson, mentioned above in
connection with Convocation Hall. In 1923 the cornerstone was laid, and the building
opened to students in 1925, though construction of additional parts of the college
continued for many years. Prior to 1925, Trinity had been a Church of England institution
located on Queen Street West. (see next sketch) It came into being in 1852 largely due to
the efforts of Bishop John Strachan, in response to the secularization of King's College,
the University of Toronto's precursor.
