1888 isn't *that* old--I'm sure there are some unassuming storefronts as old or older in the vicinity...
I am sure there are, I just always found that building very unique and it would be a shame if it was lost

On the note of spectacular old Yonge St buildings with uncertain futures, does anyone know anything about these two beautiful Romanesque columned buildings around the Yonge/Queen area? I am quite certain it's the two prominent ones on the left side in this picture.
One is fenced off and the other is up for lease, and they are perhaps my favourite buildings in that general area of Yonge.
There was another thread on this topic a few months back. There was an article on the two buildings in the paper recently (the Globe? The Star? Or maybe Torontoist -- who can remember) that suggested that plans were imminent for the bank with the Irish flag hanging out front, and that Parasuco hadn't completely ruled out opening an outlet in the other one.
