The impressive Romanesque Revival building, which is made of pink Credit Valley sandstone, has been home to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario since 1893.It also houses the Lieutenant Governor's suite and offices for Members of Provincial Parliament (MPPs), but what you might not know is that its opening day was quite a bit…quirky.In 1859, the City leased the area from King's College, and the following year, the Prince of Wales (later Edward VII) opened up a park in honour of his mother, Queen Victoria.
