That's right.

I was thinking about HMP but that was roughly where Homewood is and had a Main St. showroom, didn't it? Totally forgot about Bay King, even though I drive past their Upper James and Rymal location fairly often. Any recall on when they moved? Has to have been at least 20 years?

Yeah, HMP was at Main and Bay and closed up some time in the early 2000's. The building was torn down along with a portion of the old federal building next door a few years later when then the Hilton went up and then 150 Main West started. Bay/King must have been gone for years before that, I've lived in Hamilton since 2000 and I don't remember it ever being there.

Bay King Chrysler moved to Upper James and Rymal ages ago. I can barely recall their old location back in the late 80s and 90s.
