I also could've sworn the block was knocked down in 89, but could easily be wrong. I don't go back that far, myself.

I think the early '80s reference is wrong, at least for the other buildings. I clearly remember buying a book at the store in between the Trust building and Birks - what was that called? - in the summer of 1990 or '91, I'm pretty sure. That book seller moved shortly thereafter to a space in the Lord Nelson Arcade that was quite nice when it first opened in the early '90s, though I don't think it lasted very long.
What I do know is that the Trust building was gone by 1995. The G7 Summit here that year resulted in a temporary restaurant being placed there for the duration of the event and it was jam-packed every time I went past. Then it was gone.
