Regal Square brought business

While many major companies now operate out of Brampton, the town's first major centre for suits was the Queen's Square Building. 24 Queen Street East was opened in November 1965, in place of the Queen's Hotel. The downtown’s first high-rise commercial building, it was applauded for modernizing the street's appearance, and town's professional development. The Town of Brampton offices and council chambers soon moved in to the second and third floors, before eventually heading to the Bramalea Civic Centre, home to the Chinguacousy Library. Recently, local developer Inzola Construction has made major renovations to the building, helping reinvigorate the area.
