Looking southeast towards the corner of Yonge St and Gerrard St E in the Downtown Yonge area of Toronto.

The Forum Building, as seen in the archive photo, was destroyed by fire in 1921. Two years later, the Gerrard Building, designed by architects Sproatt and Rolph, was constructed on the same site. Today, the heritage-designated façade of the Gerrard Building is incorporated into the Concord Sky condo development.
