Canadian Southern Railway Station

















Originally build between 1871 and 1873, this building is in the midst of a major restoration.  It was built as the Canadian Southern Railway station in St Thomas and the company's headquarters.  The station is about 350 feet long but only 35 feet deep.  Each of the two floors have ceiling heights of 16 feet.  There is a basement and an attic that run the full length of the building.  Currently the building has had about two thirds of the main floor refurbished with space for office administration and a public reception hall which is now booked for 24 months.  Upstairs there is office space rented to lawyers, our MPP and numerous non-profit organizations.  Lots is done but there is still many areas yet to complete.

Images were taken early to late evening in the fall.  The full moon really lent a ethereal mood to the light.
