Designed in 1958 by architect Alan Crossley and consulting engineer Laurence Cazaly, The Oculus Pavilion is a fantastical space-age park shelter nestled in a meadow along the Humber River Recreational Trail in the City of Toronto’s South Humber Park.

I've biked by the Oculus a thousand times, often stopping to snap a picture, but it's rarely looked as good as it's looking right now. It's even surrounded by educational information about the structure, adding tremendous context to this futuristic structure.
