With the Hall set to close next month, restoration has already begun on the 120 year old stained glass windows. GBCA (heritage consultant for the revitalization project), in conjunction with Eve Guinan, glass conservator, completed a detailed condition assessment of all of the windows in the summer of 2017 – for some windows it was the first time anyone had seen them in decades. While the whereabouts of two important Composer windows were initially unknown (as reported in the Toronto Star), those panels have since been found.
