| The Graydon Block was built in 1891 by John Graydon, but was owned
and maintained by his nephew William John Graydon. Part of the block
became home to the hardware business of Robert Greig when he moved from
the Simpson Block across the street in 1893. By 1898, Grieg was again
renting space with his brother William, in the Simpson Block, when a
rental dispute arose in 1902 between Grieg and his brother-in-law James
Dandie; Grieg moved his business up the street. Recent owners have rehabilitated
the building and the structure still remains its important commercial
architectural elements. |
