723 Queen Street
Columbia Star Office
Matilda McNeil purchased this lot in 1913 for $1,450 and soon after constructed this two-story Colonial Revival style house. A single-family home until the 1980s, the property subsequently was put to commercial use like other Old Shandon residences. Since 1998, the property has been home to the Columbia Star.
