Looking northeast along King St W towards Strachan Ave in the King West Village of Toronto.
The archive photo features a Texaco gas station on the left, the Palace Arms Hotel in the centre, and the Massey Ferguson South Plant – Buildings 7 and 8 on the right. Although the plant was demolished long ago and the Esso gas station closed in early 2024, the Palace Arms Hotel was completely torn down by March 2025.
