OLD MARKET PLACE AND FIREHALL 1950'S

OLD MARKET PLACE AND FIREHALL 1950'S

 the 

Market Hall

, which stood on the northeast corner of Toronto and Brock Streets in downtown Uxbridge. 

Built in 1884, it was a central hub for the community for over 70 years. 

History of the Market Hall

• Purpose: The lower floor housed various commercial tenants over the years, while the upper level served as the meeting place for the Uxbridge Town Council.
• Cultural Hub: Between 1884 and 1887, it was used by the Mechanics' Institute (the predecessor to the local library) for meetings, lectures, and concerts.
• Demolition: The aging structure was demolished in September 1955 to make way for the modern block of retail stores that occupy that corner today. 

Other Historic Buildings at this Intersection

While the 

Market Hall

 is no longer standing, other historic landmarks still define this corner:

• Uxbridge Public Library
   (Southeast Corner): Built in 1887 as the Joseph Gould Institute, this High Victorian Gothic building with its iconic clock tower remains a major town landmark.
• Mansion House Hotel
   (Former): A grand three-storey red-brick hotel built in 1871 by town founder Joseph Gould once occupied a corner of this intersection before its eventual removal.The Original Building:
  
  The Old Fire hall:
  Constructed in the mid-1880s, this building on Brock Street served as a multipurpose civic hub. It housed the fire hall, the police chief’s office (including the town's early jail cells), and the town council chambers.

•  The fire hall at this location was destroyed by fire in 1882 and immediately rebuilt on the same site.
• Demolition: The entire block, including the Market Hall and the firehall/police building, was torn down in September 1955 to make way for modern commercial development.
