History of the Building

Cultural Events • Brigade • Menu and Cocktails • Testimonials • Facilities • Equipment • Clients List • Parking and Location • History of the Building

Built in the 1920s, the building that houses Gallery Gora has had quite a history. From the 1920′s to the early 1950′s, it was used by Teller Motor Sales Ltd, a dealership for Chrysler, Plymouth, and Ford automobiles. The upper levels, which were once used as a mechanic shop, now house contemporary art. Originally, the showroom was located on the ground floor and later housed a Royal Bank of Canada branch. The 3rd generation of the Teller family maintains its ownership of the building.
