List of fake buildings in Toronto

Last updated

This is a list of fake buildings in Toronto , Canada. After the end of World War II, electric demand grew exponentially. Toronto Hydro built house-shaped substations with slight variations from six base models ranging from ranch-style houses to Georgian mansions. The exterior designs of residential buildings allowed them to enclose substations in residential neighborhoods without much opposition from the communities as they blended in with their neighboring houses. Throughout the 20th century, the company built hundreds of these fake houses in Toronto area. [1]
