Built in 1924, the ground floor (east side) was converted into a pottery studio in 2003. The 1,800 sq ft co-operative studio now accommodates 25 ceramic artists who work together, sharing their experience and skill. The public will view artists at work, and a variety of finished artwork in the adjoining gallery.
The Standard Bread Company building has been given a heritage designation and is considered a rare example of an early 20th century industrial building. The Hintonburg neighbourhood landmark baked, sold, and delivered bread around Ottawa by horse and cart until the late 1960's, but for the last 30 years it has been occupied by Enriched Bread Artists and ClayWorks.
It is anticipated that the building will undergo a complete remodel in the near future as part of a development project that will incorporate this building into a mixed use facility, including housing, artists work spaces, a gallery and potentially a cafe.

Following the Blitz bombing of Liverpool during the second world war, rubble from bomb-damaged areas was transported to the beach at Crosby to bolster the sea defences. It still remains to this day and there are lots of interesting pieces of brick and stonework to be found. A nod here to the work of Tom Fairclough, whose images of the area are stunning, take a look - bootlecollateral.blogspot.co.uk/
