Henry Bowyer Joseph Lane (1817–1878) was an English architect who worked in Toronto from c. 1841 to 1847.
Lane's education included time at Blundell's School in Tiverton and subsequent professional training in England before he emigrated to Canada in 1841, living first in Cobourg, Upper Canada, and then in Toronto.
One of Lane's most significant contributions is Osgoode Hall, namely the west and central wings from 1844-1846. He designed and oversaw the construction of the incorporated city of Toronto's second city hall in 1844. [1]
