City Motor Hotel coming down
The City Motor Hotel is coming down next week.
Demolition on the notorious east end landmark will begin the week of August 19. Crews will be working daily between the hours of 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. for four to six weeks.
Crews have already disconnected the utilities and removed asbestos and lead piping from the facility, councillor Sam Merulla said.
Council voted in April 2012 to expropriate the Queenston Road property, notorious for its drug and prostitution problems. They officially took possession of the hotel earlier this year, evicting the tenants on June 14.
Anyone with questions about the demolition is asked to call Merulla's office at 905-546-4512.
