Original Toronto Star caption: Divided it stands: The owner of this house at 600 Parliament St. demanded $100;000 in that late '60s from developers of the sprawling St. James Town complex. So the developers simply built around the house; which stood (right) dwarfed for a decade. But now there's a new owner; new look (left) and new life for the house that refused to die.
