Info
The William H. Wright Building was a six-storey office building located at 140 King Street West in Toronto, Ontario, at the corner of King and York streets. Designed by the firm Mathers and Haldenby and built between 1937 and 1938, it was one of Toronto's best examples of streamline moderne architecture. The building was home to the Globe and Mail newspaper and was named after the founder of that paper, William Henry Wright (1876-1951). In 1974 it was demolished to make way for the new Exchange Tower.
