Station R a memory as work begins on The Upper House

gone-inset

The former Postal Station R at 2 Laird has now been demolished. The work began a few days ago. It will be the site of the much disputed Upper House condominium. The red brick post office building (inset) served for 50 years as Postal Station R. The developer purchased it for $3,050,000 in 2011. The land was purchased by the federal government in 1959 for $115,000.
