Timber… Down comes the Golden Griddle

During the week they started to take down parts of the Golden Griddle / Quality Inn Clifton Hill front desk. Then near the end of the week they demolished the Golden Griddle entirely.


You’ve never been able to see Boston Pizza / Sports Zone like this before


You can easily see over or through the fence they setup


You can see a bit of a broken Golden Griddle sign (it’s red)


You can’t read it in this picture, but the door still standing on the far side says Fire Exit Only. I think if you were still in the building, you’d have bigger problems than wondering where the fire exit was :-)


Is it under construction or deconstruction?

    So what is it that they are building in place of the hotel and Movieland? I live across the border in Youngstown and spent the night in Niagara on New Years Eve. I was suprised that they tore down Golden Griddle. I loved that restaurant. I always went to and go to in Tornoto across from Maple Leaf Gardens.

    It is only the front of the hotel that is being torn down. There will be a common front desk/check in point at the Comfort Inn Clifton Hill. The Golden Griddle and the Quality Inn Clifton Hill front desk are being replaced by a Ferris wheel.

    Movieland moved down Clifton Hill early last year to where Circus World used to be. The old building is being replaced by a combined retail store and Tim Hortons.

    As I stated in a previous comment, it is only the front desk that is being torn down (only about 10 rooms).
