It was then the Canadian Bank of Commerce. The Imperial Bank of Canada was up past Somerville. The location next to English and Mould became the only one when the two banks combined to for the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce in 1961.

My account at CIBC was there for 35 years until they closed the branch and moved it to the Stockyards Branch last year.

I moved from Mt Dennis when I was a teenager, but I can remember going into that bank as a kid with my mother back in the late 50's. Funny the things that stick in your mind. Now if only I could remember the recent past as well!

Joined CIBC Mt. Dennis in 1973. They have always had a great staff and everyone was well treated I now live in Richmond Hill, but still have my accounts with CIBC. Sorry for the folks in Mt. D. Maybe that building could be used by the "Loan Arranger" or some other loan shark!!!!!

There used to be a laneway between CIBC and the adjacent hardware store. It has been filled up by a tool shed and now a cannabis store.

TRANSITioning Mount Dennis (Jan 2020)
When the Eglinton LRT Crosstown is completed in 2021, the most western station will be in Mount Dennis and will become the second biggest transit hub in Toronto, after Union Station. The neighbourhood, located along Eglinton between the Humber River and Weston Road, will likely be go through major changes in the coming years, but exhibition inside the former mid-century CIBC building celebrates Mount Dennis right now. It features a photojournalistic exploration of the neighbourhood, retro-futuristic interpretations of Mount Dennis landmarks by local artist Scotty Graham and other work by residents.
January 25, 10 am-5 pm. At the Former CIBC Bank Building (1174 Weston). Free. designto.org.
