Queen's Quay Terminal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Queen's Quay Terminal was a cold storage facility, the Toronto Terminal Warehouse, built in 1926 by Moores & Dunford (NYC) and converted to a condo/mall complex in 1983. The renovations by Zeidler Roberts added 3 floors to the original 10 floor structure, for a total of 750,000 square feet of space. The New York Times mentioned it as an example of successful revitalization efforts in Toronto during the 1980s.[1]
The Art Deco facility houses a shopping mall that includes a Sobey's grocery store. It is also home to the Premiere Dance Theatre.
It is owned by Brookfield Properties.[2]
