    According to the owner:
    The historic site originally belonged to the Gooderham and Worts distillery, and became a popular site for film location shoots, until being transformed into a pedestrian-only village in 2003. Special events include a Sunday farmer’s market from June through October, live jazz, blues and folk performances in summertime, the Contact Toronto Photography Festival, and high profile fundraising events like Fashion Cares. The distillery’s fermenting cellar is the main location for special events, seating up to 600 people amidst the industrial chic setting of timber beams and limestone walls. The versatile event facilities for rental also include the Young Centre for Performing Arts, three art gallery spaces, three restaurants, and Balzac’s Coffee House.
    Retail stores in the Distillery are one-of-a-kind outlets for furniture, kitchenware, home accessories, jewelry and ceramics, automobile, motorcycle and sports memorabilia, stereo equipment, cocktail wares and casual clothing. Handcrafted beers are produced at the Mill St. Brewpub and a retail outlet for Segways also provides guided tours. Also, a studio retail space offers demonstration and classes on how to make art with fire. Fine art galleries are located throughout the Distillery District, with spaces dedicated to photography, painting, sculpture and installation. A bakery, pastry shop and chocolatier call this environment home, alongside finer dining options ranging from pizza and pasta to steak and seafood.
    The Distillery District quickly established itself as a performance venue for higher forms of art. Several modern dance and theatre companies are headquartered here, along with the theatre program of George Brown College. Soulpepper Theatre Company is the best-known full-time tenant, with an annual program of acclaimed productions onstage at the Young Centre for Performing Arts. The cluster of heritage buildings in such a uniquely preserved urban environment ensures every visit to the Distillery is guaranteed to provide new discoveries.
