Montgomery's Inn, c.1830

I was too early to visit this historic site so I walked around and peeked in a window. I'll have to go again another day. The inn is from around 1830 and is often misunderstood as having taken part in the Upper Canada Rebellion of 1837. It did not. That was Montgomery's Tavern (long gone) on Yonge Street in the northern part of the city. Different place, different Montgomery. Still, the inn is a significant historical landmark and worth a visit.

I have visited this historic inn twice before over the decades but I took advantage of the free admission all month (and at various Toronto Museums) to see it once again. Alas, I was too early and had other things to attend to. Mackenzie Financial Investments is footing the bill as their contribution to Canada 150 celebrations (and the firm's 50th).
