The Black Bull Fire Toronto, ON
This project put Hudson Restoration on the map. A devastating fire caused extensive damage to the second oldest bar in the city of Toronto. During peak patio season, the loss of income could have put this Toronto landmark out of business if not handled correctly. The fire occurred on a Friday, and Hudson Restoration ensured that the patio was open for service the following Monday!
After extensive restoration, the Black Bull was returned to its former glory; some would even say it looks better now. The project had an approximate value of $2.6 million.

A devastating fire caused significant damage to the historic Black Bull bar, the second oldest bar in Toronto. The fire threatened the establishment’s survival during peak patio season, posing a severe risk of income loss.
Hudson Restoration acted swiftly, mobilizing a dedicated team to address the damage. The priority was to get the patio operational by the following Monday to mitigate income loss, followed by an extensive restoration of the bar.
The fire started in one of the upper rental units.
Fire happened on a Friday, and the patio was up and running the following Monday.
It was our pleasure to restore such a beautiful heritage building, and a piece of history for the City of Toronto.
