    Yes, there was a Future Bakery at that corner - Tecumseth and Queen. And, of course one at Brunswick and Bloor West. That was 30 years ago. Not sure when they closed it down.

    That Urban Planet was originally built as a Club Monaco concept store for homewares called Caban, iirc.

    Miss my old neighborhood . Lived at Queen and Niagara from 96 to 04 . Really sucked when found out Suspect Video burned down ! The ants at Cameron House need a new paint job !No pot shops or scooters back then ! Definately miss paying just under 500 a month for rent ! When moved found it hard to sleep because was use to sound of streetcars !!

      I remember when the Black bull had picnic tables and motorcycles. Bakka, Gail Wilson and Zephyr were nearby. People would dance at the Big Bamboo, and I went to Chicago's to see blues played. The Funnel had an experimental theatre near there as well. Lots of memories

      @@MrMarktrumble I hear ya. My memories go back to the 80's when Queen West was just bubbling up. Peter Pan Restaurant. We had a server/cook named Susur Lee. Robert Plant would frequent The Black Bull when he was in Toronto. X-Rays. Long gone. Dan Ackroyd's place. Chicago's. 1988 summertime. Left early and 10 minutes later Jeff Healey and his entourage turned up. Worst one. Same summer. At the Horseshoe Tavern on a Friday after work. Some band named the Tragically Hip was playing in the back. $5 cover. I never heard of them so did not go in and sat at the bar. Rivoli with Moe Berg drinking Export Ale. Bovine Sex Club drinking with future members of The Bared Naked Ladies. CityTV and MuchMusic. Steve Anthony doing something illegal in a bathroom stall at X-Rays. Toot toot! All gone. Condos and Shoppers Drug Marts now.
