Fulford House: who will buy?
After ten of its 31 residents died in the first wave of Covid, the Fulford Residence on Guy Street closed, and now the board has to decide who to sell it to and why. Some nice photos of the interior of the house, which is something of a time capsule.

Nice pics indeed. It saddens me to learn that the old ladies of Fulford will be crawling the pubs no more. An altogether shit way to wind up a fine Montreal tradition.

Wow I had no idea it was so elegant inside! What a lovely space.

It says a lot about the horrible state of heritage conservation in Quebec that this building doesn’t have any sort of heritage designation whatsoever. I’m happy to hear the owners are looking to sell it to someone who will keep it for non-profit use.

DeWolf, at the risk of sounding angry, it’s always been an anglo establishment, so it isn’t seen as important.
