Campus Walk: York University

The Ross Building's framed gateway which beyond it reveals a courtyard

The Ross Building is an example of what 1960s and 70s architecture looked like and has been criticized as looking like slabs of concrete piled on top of each other. It has a charm to it, doesn't it? Walking around campus, you will notice the several different architectural styles it employs based on the era the particular building was built.

After this enjoyable autumn stroll, expect me to elaborate on the University's architectural styles in the coming weeks.

I think I'm going to need a better camera.
