On Saturday I visited Casa Loma, the largest private home in the Northern America built by Sir Henry Pellatt, who made his money in by signing a monopoly agreement to provide electricity to the streets of Toronto. The house cost approximately $3.5 million and took about 3 years to complete. With 98 rooms, it is an extravagant personal home. It was completed in 1914 and Sir Henry lived there only for 10 years before forced to move out because of bankruptcy.

This guy has been insanely obsessed with medieval ages that he has spent all the money in building a castle for himself and his wife. But the castle is awesome. It is worth a visit.
