Further to yesterday’s images of the John St. Roundhouse in 1985 as it was about to close, Derek Boles, our TRHA historian offers these two images to contrast how the interior looked in 1929 (Toronto Archives image) when the roundhouse first opened and what that area of the roundhouse looks like today with this space being occupied by Leon’s. Note these pictures are of different areas of the roundhouse.
