Distillery District context
Victorian industry preserved inside a modern cultural district
The Gooderham and Worts complex grew into a major 19th-century distilling operation, leaving an unusually large collection of Victorian industrial buildings. After production ended, the site was adapted as today’s pedestrian arts and entertainment district. This quest connects the surviving industrial landscape with stories from its working past; any ghostly associations are folklore, not verified history. Playable languages: English.
