Heartbreak Hotel

Yet another derelict sign.... rusting away.

This Heartbreak Hotel is on King Street West.

Here we have The London Life Insurance Company and underneath is a United Cigar Store....with a Laura Secord Shop next door.

This intersection does not look like this now.

Of course, the streetcars have been replaced with an underground subway system.

But the place I remember most is just to the right.....The Palace Theatre.

Note the huge neon sign.
