The Crumbling Lister Block

~kimberely:iconkimberely: reports, April 21

[link] Video of measures that the city had taken in 2006
Wednesday on the 16 of April part of the Lister Block collapsed the fourth floor came down hitting the third floor then both floors landed on the second floor. A rear wall partially collapsed leaving a dip in the roof

In the follow days the city has taken action to demolish the damage part of the Lister Block
ABOVE AND BELOW ARE PHOTOS OF THE LISTER BLOCK FROM PEOPLE HERE ON DEVIANTART







Info from Wikipedia:about the Lister Block building

The Lister Block, first built in 1886, was destroyed by fire in 1923 and the second building was erected in 1924. This Classic Renaissance building is 32,000 square feet with Six floors and sits on the corner of James and King William Street. The original building built in 1886 only had Four floors. It was the first indoor commercial mall in Canada[10] and is currently owned by LIUNA- Laborers' International Union of North America. The building one time was also home for the local Oldies 1150 CKOC radio station which has been on the air since May 1, 1922 and as of the year 2000 is the oldest radio station in English Canada, second oldest overall.

The Lister Block is named for Joseph Lister, the original owner, who was a merchant, clothier, member of the city's Board of Water Commissioners and school trustee. His goal was to build a "most modern and central accommodation" for small merchants at modest rent.

It was the center of community life in Hamilton for much of the last century. It was built with excellent materials and workmanship during prosperous times in the city before stock markets crashed in 1929. One of the few buildings of its type in Ontario west of Toronto. Its style is more frequently seen in American Great Lakes cities
Video of two story's about the Lister Block can be found here

The collapse of the adjacent building was indeed a depressing event.

Very interesting, may I be the first to thank you for sharing..I happen to be fascinated with old architecture. I have a favorite story about The Colosseum in Chicago, looked like a medieval castle. Cream and The Mothers of Invention were one of the last concerts before demolition. I was in the first row with my girlfriend. Lucky Moondoggy!
