08) Sahara Motel 1699 London Rd.
The earliest postcard I have for this place is 1959. The Sahara Motel and Restaurant on London Line was especially popular in the 1970's with both residents and tourists with 80 rooms and a lofty restaurant with a glassed-in front. The Sahara also boasted convention facilities for 500 people and four bowling lanes, four shuffleboard lanes, an indoor pool for year-round swimming, pony rides in summer and sleigh rides in winter.
The Sahara was demolished during the 1990's. Today the TSC Store occupies most of the old Saraha site.
