The site you are standing before today was the location of the famed Kapuskasing Inn. Built in an impressive Neo-Tudor style, the Kapuskasing Inn opened in 1928 and was the pride of town. Commissioned by the Spruce Falls Company Ltd., the 90-room hotel was built by architect George Roper Gouinlock, son of George Wallace Gouinlock, best known for being the chief architect of the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto.
