ERA Architects
Participates in 1 Session
David Winterton returned to Toronto in 2017 as an Associate at ERA Architects after 11 ½ years working and learning in the storied New York firm of Robert A. M. Stern Architects.
He received his Bachelor of Architecture degree from the University of Toronto and his Master of Architecture degree from McGill University. His research on Toronto’s rich early 20th century architecture and architects led to the publication of his essay, "Toronto’s Edwardian Skyscraper Row," published in the Journal of the SSAC. He is eager to further this research and hopes to foster an appreciation for the lesser-known parallels of modern architecture in Canada.
