Gooderham Building

The Gooderham Building, generally known as the Flatiron Building, is a five-storey, wedge-shaped building at the intersection of Front, Church and Wellington Streets. It was built in 1892 and was the first flatiron building in a major city. Until 1952 the building housed the offices of Gooderham & W

orts Distillers, whose distilling buildings now make up the Distillery District several blocks to the east. Also, take a look at the trompe-l'œil mural on the rear of the building from the adjacent Berczy Park.
