Maple Leaf Gardens

Is it true Harold Ballard built an apartment right in the Gardens? If so, where was it in the building?

I personally don't know, and this is all I was able to find.

From The CBC's Archives:
? Harold Ballard built an apartment inside the walls of Maple Leaf Gardens, and lived there. http://archives.cbc.ca/IDC-1-41-252-1290-10/sports/ballard_fraud/ (Did You Know?, page 5/7.)

Ballard did have his own apartment inside MLG.

After drafting Russ Courtnall in 1983, Russ and his mother were flown to Toronto and were given a tour of the apartment by Ballard himself. Mrs. Courtnall was shocked when shown the bedroom. On the bed was a naked life-sized, inflatable doll. Ballard uttered, "I guess the cleaning lady hasn't been in yet"

True story :)

True story :)Nothing would surprise me when it comes to Ballard.
