Sam the Record Man

After the Mackenzie House tour, I walked up Yonge Street a bit.

It was sad to see the old flagship Sam the Record Man store on Yonge Street.

The chain went bankrupt in 2001 and this store closed in 2007. The property was purchased by Ryerson University.

Here's what it used to look like:

Here it is today ...

What a difference! And it will soon be gone.

    I leave Toronto and they tear down Sam?!!?

    Ok I knew about it, but I just had hope that they would keep it.

    So sad . . .
