Park Royal Apartments

The Park Royal Apartment was the first apartment building to be erected in Brampton, and was built in 1939 for Dr. Robert James Hiscox, owner and publisher of the Peel Gazette.

The Park Royal is a rare example of the streamlined Art Moderne style, a major architectural movement stemming from the Art Deco style popular in the 1920s and 1930s. It is essentially ""one of a kind"" in Brampton in terms of style and form. The architect, Robert W. Hall, made every effort to ensure their building was "in vogue" and thoroughly "modern".
