Gooderham Building

A very nice market in the heart of downtown. The tent includes mostly fruits and vegetables along side some other meat and dairy products.The building also inclde some other products on two floors

Completed in 1892, the red-brick edifice was an early example of a prominent flatiron building.It’s a beautiful flat building that is the focal point of one of Toronto’s most iconic vistas: looking west down Front Street towards the building's prominent rounded corner, framed on the sides by the heritage commercial blocks along Front Street, and with the skyscrapers of the Financial District towering in the background.

The Firkin pub was okay the Guinness wasn't bad. The owner and staff were friendly and service was good. The place could do with a bit of a revamp and a lick of paint but worth a visit

The Gooderham Building is a historic landmark located in Toronto, Canada. It was built in 1892 and is known for its unique flatiron shape, which makes it an iconic feature of the city's skyline.One of the most notable aspects of the building is its architecture. The Gooderham Building was designed by David Roberts Jr., who was inspired by the Flatiron Building in New York City. It features red-brick cladding, intricate stone detailing, and a series of rounded arches that give it a distinct Romanesque style.The interior of the building is just as impressive as the exterior. The lobby is adorned with beautiful marble floors, ornate plasterwork, and a stunning stained glass skylight that filters natural light into the space. The building's elegant details and historical charm create a unique and inviting atmosphere.The Gooderham Building is a prime example of adaptive reuse, as it has been repurposed several times throughout its history. Originally, it served as a head office for the Gooderham and Worts Distillery, one of the largest distilleries in Canada. Today, it houses a variety of office spaces and retail stores, making it a vibrant hub of activity in the heart of Toronto.Overall, the Gooderham Building is a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Toronto. Its stunning architecture and rich history make it a true gem of the city.

Amazing landmark of Toronto to take a picture. The building’s design is very unique and I haven’t seen one like this before. There is paid parking close to here.

What a beautiful building! The Gooderham Building is an icon in Toronto, with the backdrop of buildings in the back pictures always come out great. Not to be missed! (Picture taken in April 2023)

What an iconic building it is!! It's amazing and you would see many people waiting to capture pictures in front of this building and surely you will get an Instagram shot. The street is busy but yes there is space to wait exactly in front of the building where you can wait for your shots and then leave. Overall a good vibe to be here

Although we didn’t spend to much time there it was impressive!Our plan was to go there by bicycle, but no station worked out well. After we tried the streetcar, but it was so slow that we unfortunately felt forced to give just 3/5 stars.Especially impressive was the urban silence around. It was a pleasure to go (even slow)The highlight for us was the fountain with the dogs! You definitely have to check that out!

This building is a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Toronto. At first glance, it may appear like just another historic structure among many, but as you approach it, you can’t help but sense its uniqueness and the vibrant soul it possesses. I accidentally stumbled upon this architectural marvel while strolling around the famous St. Lawrence Market area, known for its farmer’s market and restaurants. The Gooderham Building’s triangular shape and rich history make it a captivating sight, evoking a nostalgic charm that transports you back in time.
