Non-notable local bar. A celebrity owner doesn't confer notability. Several reviews available as sources, but these don't convey the significant coverage demanded by WP:GNG. Doesn't meet WP:CORP. Deserves a sentence or two in the owner's article -- which is already there. Mikeblas (talk) 16:47, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, without prejudice against recreation of a redirect to Alex Lifeson if desired. To be clear, I live in Toronto, so I've certainly heard of and even been to the Orbit Room myself — but the fact that it exists isn't an automatic notability freebie in and of itself in the absence of sufficient sourcing to pass WP:GNG and WP:CORPDEPTH, having an owner who's famous for other reasons still doesn't boost its notability in the absence of sufficent sourcing to pass GNG and CORPDEPTH, and even on a ProQuest search for older media coverage that wouldn't google, I just get a lot of glancing namechecks of its existence in event calendar listings with no discernible evidence of the kind of coverage about it that would be needed to pass GNG and CORPDEPTH.
