Elgin & Winter Garden Theatres


Workers recently finished some renovations to the outside of the Elgin & Winter Garden Theatres on Yonge Street just across from the Eaton Centre. I never really noticed the "and" on the sign as well as the two theatres; Elgin (downstairs) and Winter Garden (upstairs). Apparently the historically significant structure, built in 1913, is the only remaining working double decker theatre complex (two separate theaters) in the world.



You can rent the theatre out for private events, take a tour of the National Historic site owned by the Ontario Heratage Trust or even go to see some live theatre. I am going to wait for Cats to come back.
