139-145 Front Street East

These buildings at 139-145 Front Street East have a 1984 Toronto Historical Board plaque attached. Here's what it says:

In 1867, William Davies built a two storey brick building here and established the first large meat-packing house in Toronto. J. & J. Taylor Safeworks purchased the building in 1871, and as the business flourished, added two storeys and an addition to the west and south. The buildings were renovated in 1978-80 as part of the revitalized historic St. Lawrence District.
