Looking towards the northwest corner of Queen St W from Simcoe St in downtown Toronto. The archive photo shows George’s Bourbon St and Italian Café, once at 180 Queen St W. The restaurant and jazz club were operated by Doug Cole, who also ran George’s Spaghetti House.

The Queen St W location closed in the mid-1980s. The building and a large portion of the block were demolished and replaced by the present-day mixed-use office tower, completed in 2006
