The bay-and-gable is a distinct residential architectural style that is ubiquitous with the older portions of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The most prominent feature of the style is a large bay window that usually covers more than half the front façade of the home, surmounted by a gable roof. The bay window typically extends from the ground level towards the roof, although a variant of the housing form exists where the bay window fronts only the first level; known as a half-bay-and-gable. The housing form may be built as a stand-alone structure, although it is more often built as a semi-detached, or as terraced houses.

  • Bay-and-gable est le nom d'un type de maison omniprésent dans les vieux quartiers de Toronto. L'une des caractéristiques architecturales principales de ces bâtisses est la fenêtre en saillie (en anglais bay window) qui couvre plus de la moitié de la façade avant, surmontée d'un pignon pointu. Construites le plus souvent en brique rouge, les maisons de style bay-and-gable comportent généralement un ou deux étages. (fr)
  • Lo stile bay-and-gable è uno stile architettonico tipico delle aree meridionali della provincia canadese dell'Ontario ed in particolar modo dei quartieri più antichi della sua capitale, Toronto. La sua caratteristica più evidente è la grande finestra a golfo che solitamente occupa più della metà del fronte dell'edificio sormontata da una ghimberga. La classica casa bay-and-gable si presenta come un edificio bifamiliare in mattoni rossi alto due piani più quello mansardato, sebbene ne esistano diverse varianti. Si tratta dello stile in cui vennero edificate la maggior parte delle abitazioni di Toronto tra la fine del XIX e l'inizio del XX secolo. Le aree più antiche della città come la sua Little Italy e Cabbagetown presentano ancora oggi centinaia di edifici in stile bay-and-gable. (it)
