I image it may have been a machine shop, maybe light manufacturing, or even a garage, in its past life.
Oh Great Noirists - please shed some light on this old building!

Looks to be for sale and can be yours for slightly less than $1.5million!
Same owner since 1982 (someone who owns a lot of other properties around by the looks of it), but it seems like it's been a revolving door for tenants lately. Live Art Plantscapes (plants, interior/exterior design), Access Print & Copy (Commercial Printing, Lithography), K. Chocolatier (chocolatier, apparently), T.V. Travel Services (travel services, at a guess), and Coup de Tete (either commercial photography/motion picture/video production or "one-stop provider of chiropractic care" or some bizarre combination of the two) all show that address in the last several years.
The building listing says "Multi-Purpose Building" and "Retail/Studio and Showroom"
Looks to be in pretty good shape inside:

Haven't turned up anything on what it was earlier in its past life so far.
