  • The Cobbles, RingtailedFox wrote 6 years ago:
    According to Ronnie Delfgou on Facebook: The Cobbles The Victor Williamson House, located at 849 Kildare Rd is a 10 bedroom manson built in 1906. Built of cobblestone, with it's asymmetric design, stone chimneys, varied window styles and diversity of dormers, it was one of the first cobblestone homes in the area. Victore Williomson, a prominent contractor and builder, lived there untill 1925, when it was sold to Earl C Drake. During World War II it housed polish army officers and served as residence for the Canadian Womens Army Corps. It also served as a temporary Metropolitan School of Nursing in the late 1940s It was recognised for it's heritage value in 2004

  • DJ Galvanizing, Gary (guest) wrote 7 years ago:
    No, they don't, as they only galvanize coils on their single hot dip galvanizing line. Another bit of information: it is 100% owned by ArcelorMittal since 2013. http://www.fasken.com/arcelormittal-dofasco-acquires-dj-galvanizing/
  • Rendezvous Shores, Joseph (guest) wrote 7 years ago:
    Shawn ... that was a great Tavern/Restaurant, along with the marina behind it during its heyday from the 1950's through the 1970's. I spent so many summers there as a kid on my family's boat. I stopped by there once in 1980's with my camera and took photos of the decaying docks, the Marina-Master shack and the Tavern, because I knew someday someone was gonna bulldoze the entire property. I still have the pics.
  • Rendezvous Shores, Joseph (guest) wrote 7 years ago:
    So sad to see what has become of that property; my cherished childhood playground turned into a subdivision of $600,000 over-priced McMansions. Rendezvous Shores used to me the location of the "Rendezvous Marina" a great family-boating marina back in the 1950's through the 1970's. If you zoom in on satellite image, in the water to the left of the the tip of that jetty/penninsula, you see an angular breakwater row of rocks in water; that used to be the outer edge of many many rows of concrete marina boat slips. Working-class families from Ontario & Detroit would spend their summers and weekends there with their boats and small cabin cruisers. Children would be playing on that entire huge grass field covering what is now that entire housing subdivision, from the edge of the boat docks, all the way down to huge beautiful Rendezvous Tavern Restaurant & Bar on the edge of the main roadway, which I see has been torn down for those homes. Nothing greater at age 5 than running from the docks to the Tavern with 20-cents in your hand to get an ice cream cone in 1965. I hope I am not the only person who recalls the sweet years there at the "Rendezvous Marina"

  • Former location of Saint Mary's Academy, Ramona Zamba (guest) wrote 8 years ago:
    I was a student in 1953 and will never forget how beautiful the Academy was and how impressed I was with everything. I only stayed for one year but still have my Year Book. Never had a chance to have any bad memories about the Academy, only thought at the time how wonderful it was. Loved all my friends that I made while I was a student. Remember the choir and loved the songs, mostly in Latin. Farewell St. Mary's
  • Ford Windsor Engine Plant (ANNEX), James R. Johnson (guest) wrote 8 years ago:
    That is a shame. Excellent engine!! My engine had about 350,000 hard miles on it before I decided to rebuild it. By hard miles I am referring to hauling 4000 pounds or more on the truck bed, pulling diesel tractors off to get them cranked, pulling my dad's Chevy truck in every time it broke down (happened regularly), hauling equipment, etc. I was a GM man until they didn't want to sell me a truck. Best thing they ever did for me. Just bought another real truck, new F-150 5.0.

    To Paula Norris: Maybe Sr, Philomena was nice to you but she was not nice to me at all. I do not have an agenda. I could have sued the Catholic Church because of her. She was very abusive and you probably did not see it. I am so glad that I am no longer a part of the Catholic Church. I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and have been for over 30 years. I am so glad to be serving the true God. Sincerely, J
