Summary
| Description |
English: The Lord Simcoe Hotel prior to its demolition. Built in 1956, the 20-storey, modernist hotel was designed by Henry T. Langston and Peter Dickinson. The hotel was named for John Graves Simcoe, Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada. Located on the northeast corner of King Street and University Avenue (150 King Street West), it was closed in 1979 and torn down in 1981. It was replaced by the Sun Life Centre East Tower in 1984. The hotel was unable to compete with other downtown hotels due to a lack of central air conditioning and convention space. Toronto, Ontario, Canada. |
