Also how many buildings with ionic columns are left in this city..? And isn't this covered under heritage protection and the fact they would have to preserve the facade due to its age, like the william thomas building? Hrmm...
It is not a listed property for designation. It is registered though. Even a désignation doesn't protect a building it seems though. The Lyric Century theatre is designated (you'll notice it's an empty field) though I don't know when it was designated, before or after demolition.
