Silver Dollar is now only a Dime. Spadina, Toronto.

            There is a Silver Dollar and there isn't one. This photo was taken when the 100+ year old Waverley Hotel and the club were still standing. Both were taken down in 2018 and rebuild in the last 2-3 years.
The old hotel and the club were not architectural jewels, but Silver Dollar had character and with the club Comfort Zone in the basement they were part of Toronto's music history. The club is restored, but no music line up was announced yet. Comfort Zone, which was not rebuilt, was a bit scary (more Zombie Zone). I was there exactly once and only for one minute.
