Turns out the loading dock was owned by Frost Steel & Wire Company Limited. Here’s a 1948 50th anniversary ad showing it: https://scontent-yyz1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.18172-8/14524557_1276076015744022_38169071197502980_o.jpg?_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=cdbe9c&_nc_ohc=4HDxhDQPgxQAX8Nge8I&_nc_ht=scontent-yyz1-1.xx&oh=00_AT9aJHLSzkNqyVFc2012r_Q9V71UKPqpjh_E4dd1LOHvmQ&oe=628030AC

Thanks William. I thought the same though it is a section of a factory building off Princess Street. Street view show remnants of a similar overhang on the front side of the building too. Maybe a former loading area.

Neat!
What is on the left side there? An old station or something of the like?
