OLD and NEW...
This is the first escalator( or almost first) in Toronto...
made by wood...wooden escalator!!...haha..
it was amazing(at least to me)...cuz i haven't seen wooden escalator before...
i went to Furniture store and found this escalator in the store..
i heard that this place(College park) used as a wedding hall and it's part of wedding hall...
however now it's a just shopping mall....
but...anyway...it looks and has kept well...of course it doesn't move now..
these days...
people change everything...old to new...
wanna have new ones and don't wanna keep old stuff..
everythings are new around me...
that's why i can be very amused, when i see old things in the middle of down town...
anywayz...
it was another nice surprising in the middle of town...
hope i can find some old and good stuff sometimes and wanna be amused again...

The escalator was one in the old Eaton's (department) store in Toronto. The entire mall was once the Eaton's store, which later moved (and became a chain of stores across the country, and a few years ago went broke after 80 years or something).
The wedding hall is on the top floor of the building -- a beautiful dance hall with smaller conference rooms. It was just recently restored and is now the hottest spot in town for special functions.
The escalator was the first of its kind in Canada and remains the last working wooden escalator in the world (or so it was claimed). However since that part of the original Eaton's is now a furniture store the escalator is no longer turned on. When I worked across the street from the building in the early 90s, it was working and you could use it.
Yes, very cool.
thanks for the right infomation about the escalator..haha... :)
