Walker Sons was a company under the same control as Hiram Walker & Sons Limited, Walkerville Land & Building Co. and Walkerville Light & Power Co. amoung others. The building was constructed to meet the demand for industrial space during a time where the Town of Walkerville was experiencing rapid industrial growth. The Town of Walkerville was founded by Hiram Walker and incorporated in 1890. In the early 1900's, Walkerville was a model town with a mature and cultured air despite being relatively young.
