Williams Piano Company

The Williams Piano Company was started in Toronto in the year 1849, and eventually relocated to Oshawa in 1890. The company rapidly became one of the most prominent of its kind, shipping products to at least seven nations worldwide. At the height of its popularity, Williams Piano employed around 250 workers, who helped establish it as a premiere creator of pianos and other musical instruments. The factory building, which sat on Richmond Street in Oshawa, was torn down in 1970 to make room for a new headquarters for the Durham Regional Police.
