Commentaires : The Globe Hotel, eventually renovated and renamed the Mountain View Hotel, is located on Huron Street, on the Northeast corner of Huron Street and Hurontario Street. History:"The old Globe Hotel, now the Mountain View, was among the largest, classiest and busiest of Collingwood's many hotels in the bustling heydays of the railway. Founded in 1856, one of the town's first, The Globe offered all the modern conveniences of the turn of the century- like electric lights and hot water." Reference: The Enterprise-Bulletin Newspaper
