| Located beside Casa Loma, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, this is the third Spadina House on the site. The original owner of the property was William Warren Baldwin, a prominent early resident of York who was a lawyer, doctor and sometimes architect. Baldwin's grandson sold the eighty acre estate to financier James Austin in 1866, who erected the present building. It has undergone some major renovations over the years, including the addition of a third floor in 1912. The Austin family remained at Spadina House until 1980, when the building and six acres of the original estate were generously donated to the city as a museum. |
