The building has the sports arenas on either side, curling on the west, tennis/squash on the right, and the middle part houses the banquet areas, janitorial rooms, kitchen and what apear to be offices/residences which go up to the third floor. There is also a couple basements one which contains a locked safe, in fairly bad condition. The building has been almost completely trashed as a combination of weather (parts of the building are collapsing) and whoever else has explored it. Broken glass and rubble is everywhere. Photo opportunities abound

Giant halls in various states of decay (the curling rink is in the process of being demolished although if you can get in there in the next day or so then you may still get a feel for its former glory), squash courts, tennis courts, apartments, and a large locked safe in one of the basements, banquet halls, numerous entertaining artifacts (a pile of cocktail umbrellas, what appears to be a bike-repair workshop, scattered artifacts etc), and a great rooftop (best explored late at night, due to the urban setting, including apartment buildings right across the street), while on the roof be carefull that you stay on the flat roof and do not attemp to climb on the peaked roof over top of the curling rink as it is very unstable and could collapse under your weight sending you to a three or four storey fall to the cement floor below. The back field of the property i believe was once a lawn bowling facility from the looks of things but I can not guaruntee this fact

The Hamilton Thistle Club is a men's club over a century old which featured squash, tennis and curling, as well as dining and banquet areas for members. It was also the address for BBQ catering for a short period of time after the social club closed from lack of interest / finances. Website is http://www.bbqcatering.com
