The Botany Building. 1931. Going to school.

            Walking to school 10 miles, in -30c, knee high in snow, uphill all the way there and back. This is how Canadian grandparents describe to their pampered grandkids their tough youth. Botany building (arch. Mathers & Haldenby) is now called Tanz Center, but not much dancing is done there, as it is a research campus for Neuroscience. It was named after benefactors who donated money to found the studies. There used to be wonderful classic greenhouses adjacent to the building, but they were removed about two decades ago. Botany is not sexy anymore.
