Well, I am a bit mistaken. The area at Kingshighway
and Waterman is called "Holy Corners"
Only one of the buildings is in a Greek style.
"The last structure of the "Holy Corners" group is the
Tuscan Masonic Temple, which was dedicated in 1908.
This lodge was founded in 1870 and acquired its
present lot in 1905, when architect Albert B.Groves
was selected to design the new lodge hall. The temple
is an example of the Greek Doric style of architecture
and, while it appears to front on Kingshighway, its
main entrance is on Westminster Place."
