Yonge and Gould/Then and Now

The Edison (formerly the Empress) Hotel in 1950.

The old Edison Hotel on Yonge at Gould has seen better days. So many years of neglect and renovation caused a partial collapse of the north wall last year with no repairs in sight.
The ground floor also housed a record store in the 1960's and 70's.
My friend Malcolm Glassford worked there.
