Grain Exchange Building

The Grain Exchange Building is a historic building located at 701 Victoria Avenue East in the south side downtown area of Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.

[1] The Grain Exchange Building was constructed in 1909, and designed by the architect Carl Wirth.

It was constructed for Fort William’s attempt to capture the grain exchange business from Winnipeg, but the venture never really got off the ground.

The construction of Victoriaville Civic Centre, which opened in 1980, enclosed much of the building within a mall.

The decision was made in October of 2020 to demolish the aging Victoriaville Mall and return the area to a street.
