Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: LE MAGASIN LA BAIE DE LA RUE QUEEN Vers la fin du XIXe siècle, les magasins à rayons révolutionnent la vente au détail en offrant choix, prix modiques et remboursement garanti. En 1895, Robert Simpson demande à l'architecte Edmund Burke de dessiner les plans d'un nouveau magasin à l'angle sud-ouest des rues Yonge et Queen. C'est le premier immeuble au Canada à ossature métallique porteuse et sa façade est modelée sur cette structure. En 1969, le magasin, après avoir été agrandi six fois, occupe deux blocs entre les rues Yonge, Queen, Bay et Richmond. En 1978, la plus vieille société et le plus important propriétaire de grands magasins au Canada, la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson, achete l'immeuble. Devenu un «La Baie» en 1991, il reste l'un des monuments commerciaux les plus célèbres au Canada. Fondation du patrimoine ontarien, organisme du gouvertement de l'Ontario
