Sold & Saved. Guelph’s Petrie Building’s full, ornate stamped galvanized iron facade is 1 of 3 documented buildings in all of Canada erected prior to 1890. Tyrcathlen Partners, Guelph developers bought the 133 year old Petrie Building in March of this year with the goal of rehabilitating both the pressed metal facade and the interior spaces. There is a single layer of paint or wallpaper on the walls of the upper floors that have been boarded up for decades. I would love to photograph the interior before the restoration…. #petriebuilding #Guelph #fujifilmx30 #exploreontario #heritagecanada #EndangeredPlaces #huffpostgram #instablog #restoration #psychogeography #abandonment_issues
