Notes:
From the City's report regarding the inclusion of this property on the Heritage Registry:
"Located on the north side of Geary Avenue, west of Dufferin Street, the property at 288 Geary Avenue (including 300 Geary Avenue) contains a two-storey industrial building associated with a post-war period of industrial expansion on Geary Avenue, particularly west of Dufferin Street. It was constructed c.1948 and first occupied by Lilo Rail of Canada. The Modernist styling of the flat-roofed, steel post-and-beam factory building is evident in the pronounced horizontality of its design with broad ribbon windows extending across the buff brick-clad principal (south) elevation. The gridded metal window frames and rectangular, projecting entrance bay with restrained dichromatic red brick detailing, including two soldier courses centred above the openings and a flush double stringcourse further emphasizing the horizontal above the first storey are all typical of the geometric elements and minimalist sensibility which characterize Modernism."
