OLD TAVERN DOOR, COBALT

I remember, with fondness, visiting this place in the early seventies.It was lots of fun at the time. It closed but now they are hard at work restoring this old historic building. Of course I liked the, lets say the rich weathered look, of the exterior. The main entrance actually has some beautiful colours and textures as do some of the other side entrances.

  1. Hey Mike,
    Great photo of this old place. So glad to hear that it is being restored. Maybe one of your photos would find its place as decor on a wall somewhere inside. Thanks, Dave

  2. I like the "no loitering" sign as opposed to No Trespassing - it sounds a bit more promising.

    You're right, Mike, they are slowly restoring this old Fraser Hotel. Supposedly, it is to be turned into housing units, plus the new home of the Cobalt War Museum which is presently in the old train station. The exterior of the hotel has a lot of historical character also.
