Did Silverwood build that building or did they move into it?
Edited: Answered my own question.
In the 1890s Schneider had a factory built on land next door to his home at 55 Courtland Ave. E. (near Benton Street). It was built in the shape of a house in case the venture didn’t succeed.
In 1909, a storefront addition was completed on the east side of the factory. This storefront is still standing at 63 Courtland Ave. E., along with other parts of the two-acre complex he developed at this site with his sons.
Once the new plant was up and running, the old site was sold to Silverwood Dairies Ltd., which used it for the next 45 years. Today, the buildings at 63 Benton St. hold several small businesses.
