A new home for the CFC
After the Taylor family vacated the property, CFC founder Norman Jewison contacted E.P.’s son, Charles Taylor, and persuaded the Taylor family to let the CFC operate at Windfields Estate. We entered into a lease with the City of Toronto the following year, and Windfields has been the home of the CFC ever since.
Windfields, which was officially designated as a heritage property under the Ontario Heritage Act in 1992, has since undergone a series of renovations and restorations, as well as the addition of a landmark building called the Northern Dancer Pavilion, built on the footprint of the former pool and cabanas in 2014.
