From an earlier Record article: ... Vanessa Hicks, a heritage planner hired by the developer, said the modern structure is actually an amalgam of six buildings that have been added to the original 1862 structure over the years, from 1875 to after 1950. Very little of heritage value remains on the inside of the building, she said, although the building still has some original hand-hewn beams and mortise-and-tenon floor joists that might be salvaged and used in the new development to commemorate the building's long history. ...
I don't know whether the plan is to save much more than the King St and Queen St facades. Perhaps the "original 1862 structure" is also to be retained?
