The five-storey building was originally constructed as the headquarters of the Methodist Church of Canada in 1913 by Burke, Horwood and White.The building was purchased by CHUM in 1985, and was re-opened in May 1987 as the new headquarters for the company and its various outlets, including Citytv Toronto (which was previously located at 99 Queen St. East).
The old CHUM building on Yonge Street in the 1960's with their "fleet".
A small collection of Chum ephemera from this Chum history site.

  1. This last pic of the old CHUM building on Yonge makes me miss David Pritchard.
