Unfortunately, it was one of the buildings on Main Street destroyed in the 1872 fire. The Tremont Hotel opened in the same location the following year and remained a hotel until 1960. the style of the building is Ontario Vernacular- Provincial Georgian In its heyday, Markham had 4 hotels here on Main Street. Part of our growth was because we were one day’s ride from York (Now known as Toronto) by horse. Travellers would come this far, stay in one of the fine hotels while selling their goods and services in the area. They’d then move on to Uxbridge or Richmond Hill.   Go to page: [<< Prev]159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 169 170 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 188 189 [Next >>]
