With the recent surge of glass towers popping up all over the city, it is comforting to know that while developers are staying current and meeting an ever-increasing demand for green technology and modern spaces, that the old is not forgotten in the process. A great example of this, is the rebirth of the Romanesque Revival building, best known for many years, as the home of the somewhat unsavory establishment , Jilly’s, into what promises to be an exciting new addition on the hotel scene in Toronto. Located at Broadview and Queen, The Broadview Hotel will open in 2017 after a respectful restoration and modern addition have been completed. When it opens its doors, The hotel will house 58 boutique style rooms, a street level café and a rooftop bar.
