Consumers' Gas Building, Renaissance Revival building in Toronto, Canada.
The Consumers' Gas Building features stone masonry walls, decorative relief panels, and classical architectural elements across its symmetrical facade at Toronto Street.
This structure, completed in 1852 and expanded in 1876, served as the headquarters for the Consumers' Gas Company for 125 consecutive years.
The building represents the industrial development period of Toronto, displaying the architectural preferences of commercial establishments in nineteenth-century Ontario.
The structure now houses Don Alfonso 1890 Italian Restaurant and the Rosewater Room, an event venue managed by Liberty Entertainment Group.
Architect David B. Dick created a unified facade in 1899 that merged two separate structures into one cohesive Renaissance Revival design.
