The following pictures courtsey of TORONTOHISTORY.ORG but for more info on the building itself go here: Queen's Quay Terminal
Queen's Quay Terminal was a cold storage warehouse facility, the Toronto Terminal Warehouse, built in 1926 by Moores & Dunford (NYC) and converted to a condo/mall complex in 1983 (The southwest section was demolished and forms the south end of the parking lot between Queen's Quay Terminal and the EnWave PowerPlant). The renovations by Zeidler Roberts added 4 floors to the original 10 floor structure, for a total of 750,000 square feet (70,000 m2) of space. The New York Times mentioned it as an example of successful revitalization efforts in Toronto during the 1980s.
The Art Deco facility houses a shopping mall that includes a Sobeys grocery store. It is also home to the Premiere Dance Theatre and the Museum of Inuit Art.
Yahoo! Canada and Anheuser-Busch InBev's Canadian unit Labatt both maintain offices in the building.
It is owned by Brookfield Properties.
An abandoned cold storage facility (Central Warehouse Cold Storage at Montgomery Street and Colonie Street) identical to its original appearance exists in Albany, NY.
