## Why go

Three such buildings are the Fashion Building on the south side of Richmond Street, and the Tower and Balfour buildings on the NW and NE corners of Spadina Ave and Adelaide St. On the SE corner, there is a plaque describing the latter two buildings. Today, there is little or no clothing manufacturing in the Fashion District, but the name persists.
