Stone Distillery
28 Distillery Lane
The largest and oldest building in the Distillery District is David Roberts Sr.’s distinctive Stone Distillery that opened in early 1861. Built of limestone brought from Kingston by schooners, the Stone Distillery remained the only building of limestone built by Gooderham & Worts, although many other red-brick buildings designed by Roberts and his son, David Roberts Jr., sit on limestone bases that help unify the site visually.
Other distinctive features were its location on the edge of Toronto Bay, the proximity of railway tracks running along what is now Stone House Walk, and its tie plates, corbels, and double-timber-beam construction. The exterior of the building looked remarkably similar to today’s except for the replacement of the lake by a parking lot.
