Golf's Steak House opened in 1976, at 598 Lancaster St. W. in Kitchener. The building was designed by W.H. Breithaupt in 1903, and was originally occupied by the Bridgeport Casino. Special Collections & Archives also holds the blueprints for the casino.
The Bridgeport Casino, ca. 1903. From Souvenir of Berlin, call number E1283.
In 1988, Golf's was the scene of a fire, and naturally enough, the KW Record was there to cover the incident. We were looking at these negatives recently, and thought that they told quite a dramatic narrative. Today, we share some of them with you.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
