It operated as a train station for fewer than 15 years before closing in 1930; shortly thereafter the building became home to @TheBeerStoreON and @LCBO outlets. It was purchased in 2002 by Woodcliffe and was restored with the help of Goldsmith Borgal Co. Ltd. and @EasternConst.

Buildings of the Past: Government House, Residence of Lieutenant Governor, King Street and Simcoe Street, dated before 1912 when it was sold to CPR which demolished it in 1915. Can you guess what is currently in the location ?
