Consumers' Gas Building

Consumers' Gas Building

Located on Toronto Street, the historic plaque reads: "In 1852 the Consumers' Gas Company of Toronto established its new head office building on this site, in the prestigious financial district of the city. Expansion to the north in 1876 added a second building located at 19 Toronto Street, designed in the Renaissance style by architect David B. Dick, whose later alterations in 1899 unified the facades of both buildings. The company remained in this location for 125 years. Renovations, undertaken by Stone & Kohn architects, for Counsel Trust Company were completed in 1983."
