Regarding 

The image situated below.

IT IS BEING DEMOLISHED TODAY (JAN 12/2026): BUILT IN 1859, 

THE FORMER KENT BREWERY AND BREWMASTER’S HOUSE ON ANN ST, LONDON, ONTARIO WERE FORMALLY HERITAGE-DESIGNATED BY LONDON CITY COUNCIL IN 2022, BUT THE DEVELOPER (YORK DEVELPMENTS) APPEALED THE DESIGNATION TO THE ONTARIO LAND TRIBUNAL 

AND LATER APPLIED FOR A HERITAGE DEMOLITION PERMIT, WHICH COUNCIL APPROVED IN JUNE 2025 BY AN 11–3 VOTE WITHOUT DEBATE, REQUIRING ONLY SALVAGE AND “COMMEMORATION” RATHER THAN PRESERVATION. 

THE DECISION ENDED A YEARS-LONG HERITAGE FIGHT AND SPARKED CONTROVERSY BECAUSE IT REINFORCED PUBLIC PERCEPTIONS THAT COUNCIL PRIORITIZES LARGE DEVELOPERS OVER HERITAGE, ESPECIALLY IN A CITY WHERE INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPER-CONNECTED DONATIONS TO COUNCILLORS ARE LEGAL.

Remember when there used to almost be a gas station on every corner? And remember when gas was under 40 cents a gallon?

This is a photo of a Sunoco gas station taken by one of friends mothers from the south side of Oxford East, looking toward hus grandfather's Sutter's Sunoco gas station at 944 Oxford St. East. The car parked in the picture was their  family car.

The photo was taken sometime in the 1950's, likely the latter part of that decade. Gas was 37.9 cents a GALLON!  They owned the  station from 1952-1970, when my elderly friends father retired at age 71. 

Gas stations were plentiful in that  area, according to my friend .

a White Rose, gas station at the corner of Stuart and Oxford, a Fina corner station at Oxford and Boullee, my  friends grandfather's corner station of Oxford and Barker and an Esso station at the corner of Oxford and Sterling.

My elderly friend says he has super terrific 

Great memories from those days hanging around his gas station as a child!
