Was that located off the ramp down from Broadview & Danforth?
Correct.

I've been noticing that in a lot of these old pictures. So many Pontiacs! They must have been very popular. My dad had one. A 1964 Parisienne.'63 Pontiac, '64 Pontiac, '61/'62 Pontiac, Vauxhall, '70? Buick.

Broadview & Danforth ramp...so that would be where the current Loblaws is located (or the residential building to the South)? That is just creepy. I mean, the house up top right. The hospital would be in the lower back 40 of what used to be Broadview Collegiate, which is now the City Adult Learning Centre.
Here's the north end of Winchester Street at Danforth:

Wow. I've never seen this one before--what a wonderful shot of the death knell for the Bank of Toronto building. I guess I had assumed all the buildings came down at the same time for the TD Centre, or at least for the main tower and banking pavillion. Makes you wonder, for a brief second, could they have retained the old building? It was such a pretty thing, although the Mies pavillion is beautiful in its own right.

Wow. Any idea when the building in the left side of the picture was taken down? That's an excellent picture.

I think this was discussed elsewhere a few months ago, probably in the Toronto Then and Now thread. The old building was a bank, I think.
