I've been racking my brain on that one too. Ziobrop says the article is from 86. I worked at Delta Barrington in '89, (not sure when it was built) but it was definitely not new at that time. I also feel like I remember the CIBC building being there for quite a time too. That's all the corners of Duke and Barrington.

EDIT: I see that 1986 is the date of the DA link, not the Herald article. This fire was clearly earlier than this then. Google tells me the CIBC bank went up in 77, still not sure about the Delta. Seems likely it was in the 70's or early 80's though based on the style.
