i wasn't aware of a relocation to Queen St...glad you enjoyed your visit

interesting that you mention this at this point:

now that Sam's demolition has begun, you can again see the the framing of the original overhead apt windows that used to be on each side of the vertical Steele's Tavern marquee

back when Sam's took over the space, the second revolving circle of lights (spinning LPs) was added, so for decades, you couldn't see the original brick facade and windows

some pics of the transition from the 70s to today:
