Old Bank and Vidal Home
Two of a row of Sarnia's early buildings pulled down to make way for the present Drawbridge Inn on Christina St. in 1962, the small brick building on the left being the old bank, built by Alexander Mackenzie in 1852. The house adjoining it was erected by Capt. Vidal in 1843. The little bank was to be preserved, but the developer decided he wanted to move the building to another location. When this was attempted, the aged structure collapsed.
