In 1891, this Gothic Romanesque five-story red brick office building with twelve-foot high ceilings, brass fittings, walk-in vault and the very first manually-operated Otis elevator in the city of Toronto was built at the intersection of Front, Wellington, and Church Streets on a triangular piece of land. A tunnel was dug so that those in charge could travel from the building to the bank across the street without having to walk outside with large bags of cash. In 1973, the building sold for $600,000.00. In 1975 it became a National Historic Site. Currently, the Flatiron ranks among the most expensive office space in the City of Toronto.
