| SITE HISTORY: Some say the alleged hauntings are caused by the ghost of a "murdered gangster" who was rumoured to have been shot to death here. Other rumours say it is the ghost of a man who "hung" himself here. The manager told us that one of the men who were shot made it to the hospital and survived. The Paddock Tavern originally opened for business in the 1940's by Morris Fishman. He owned and trained thoroughbreds, some of which won Cups. Hence the name "The Paddock". This bar and restaurant has a history of live jazz players from New York City; including Oscar Peterson and Alberta Hunter. It also drew a crowd of bookies and "gangster" types. The main floor bar had a downstairs component called The Saratoga Room, Blue Bonnets Room and the Little Saratoga Room. |
