If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, behold. 

The Board of Education Building is threatened with demolition by McMaster University. Rather than build in the parking lot behind the building, which will also be owned by McMaster, the university is choosing to destroy a Hamilton landmark. 

Hamilton taxpayers will contribute $20 million to help McMaster demolish this building.

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, behold.

Please help by emailing:

City Council.  The Board of Education. Patrick Deane, President of McMaster University at preswww@mcmaster.ca

Unfortunately the City council approved last August the medical centre on property. They voted to commit more than $47 million over 30 years to the proposed medical building. For me, the building isn't that bad and is worth preserving. caravan parks

It's sad to knwow that the old building will be demolished. It's a beautiful example of modernist architecture. Isn't the building structurally sound? They should have retained the building and redeveloped it. kimberley accommodation

Enforce the regulation – forcing the Board of Education to stay in the building and McMaster to locate at the Innovation Park"
Why does the BoE get a new headquarters when they are closing schools? Say no and put Mac across the street---better yet expropriate the land from Vrancor and give it to them.
