Built in 1911 this building was originally used as a commercial warehouse for the Steele Briggs Seed Company who shipped seeds across Canada. The Steele Briggs Seed Company was founded by Richard Steele and Sylvester Briggs originally purchasing 49 Spadina as a warehouse to consolidate their operations into one building. They occupied the building until the late 1970s, at which point the building was sold to WolfeCorp and converted to a commercial office building. 49 Spadina features original beams, high ceilings and oak floors.
Located in the heart of the King-Spadina neighbourhood, 49 Spadina is a brick and beam heritage building that has been modernized and repurposed from a light industrial structure to a best-in-class mixed-use building. Situated in one of the city’s most walkable and bike-friendly communities, the building is within close proximity to Rogers Centre, Bisha Hotel, Soho House and some of the best restaurants in the city. 49 Spadina is also the home of the new LCBO King West Flagship Store.
