Back in the 1970’s this building was the location of a store called “The Shoe Tree” which was not only a shoe store but also the best skateboard shop in St. Catharines. It was owned by Maggie and Cliff Thorburn and Cliff was Canada’s top snooker player who in 1980 won the snooker World Championships. I remember this well as I spent many hours in there looking/buying skateboard stuff.
Thanks for the information. AV.
