Toronto Street Post Office, Greek Revival post office in downtown Toronto, Canada

The stone structure at 10 Toronto Street features four Ionic columns extending two stories high and displays precise symmetrical proportions in its design.

Constructed between 1851 and 1853 by architects Frederick Cumberland and Thomas Ridout, the building functioned as a post office until 1937.

The architectural elements include figures and a shield from the Canadian Coat of Arms positioned at the top of the building's entablature.

The building stands on the west side of Toronto Street between King and Adelaide Streets, making it accessible within the downtown core.

In 2006, Morgan Meighen & Associates purchased the property for 14 million Canadian dollars after a competitive process involving 200 bidders.
