On
Saturday, November 18, 2006, I’ll participate at the Art Exhibit
and Sale at the 2006 Annual Ontario Professional Engineers Awards that
will take place at The Carlu, located in downtown Toronto. Part of the
proceeds will be donated to Engineers Without
Borders (www.ewb.ca
and www.ewb-international.org). |

| The
Carlu was originally intended to be Eaton's flagship retail complex in the
1930. It is believed to be one of the first models of a concert hall incorporated
into a retail shopping centre.
Designed by famed French architect Jacques Carlu, the 7th Floor (as it was then known) is one of the world's best surviving examples of the “Art Moderne” Period. Named after its famed architect, The Carlu has been restored to exactly what Lady Eaton had envisioned when it opened in 1931. 2006 is the 7th Floor’s 75th Anniversary. It has become the premier multi-functional special events facility in Toronto and has been awarded numerous awards and distinctions. |
