Here’s only old drawing from an ad that ran in the Border Cities Star in 1932. This building was located on the south side of Cataraqui Street, just west of Louis Ave. This warehouse built in 1922 and survived through the mid 1960’s.
It was originally the Maillioux and Parent offices and warehouse, built in 1922, and used by the company through 1928. They were better known as the local grocery chain of M&P pure food stores.
It was also the original home to National Auto Rad.
From the Star – March 25, 1957:
Today the site is a vacant lot, it was last used as the parking lot for the Children’s Aid Society building across the street. However, if you zoom in and look at the back of the lot, there is a wall dividing the lot from the surrounding properties, I believe that the wall is a remaining part of the building.

As for National Auto Rad, things don't look good for it's future in Windsor. The workers were locked out yesterday, and they were saying that the building is already empty.
