A little Bit Of History

Andy | Tuesday, March 31, 2020 | Best Blogger Tips
Over 100 years old the building has been bought by a condo developer for $31.5 million. It was built in The City Of Toronto sometime around 1874. Over the years it went through various name changes until 1985 when it became Filmores Hotel with a bump and grind strip club. It has remained that way ever since.

    A great looking building. I wonder if the developer is going to keep it and remodel or tear it down and build another tower.

    Fine looking old building. These old hotels are disappearing, and in the process of becoming something else. Hope the condo developer is successful. If not, this could become a building site for new construction.

    only in Toronto Andy... the old place lasted a long time since 1874... as for the bump and grind club... it might just last another 100 years:)

    I love those old flatiron buildings. I hope the developers keep some of its character.

    Truly the cornerstone of an intersection. Zo worden ze niet meer gemaakt. Lets hope it keep that character.

    That doesn't sound sophisticated a stripclub with advertising beautiful girls. But the building looks beautiful!
