On the agenda

As the city filed it

The building located at 28-30 Langley Avenue has a rich history in the Riverdale neighbourhood. The building started as the nurses' residence to the Cholera Hospital which predated the Riverdale Hospital. The house has a very grand look from the outside, with stained glass and beautiful masonry work. It was also a boarding house for girls and women - a safe place for young women to live who came to the City to work. It is currently used as a licenced rooming house.

A request to evaluate the property was made previously at the July 4, 2018, meeting of the Toronto and East York Community Council. http://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2018/te/bgrd/backgroundfile-117663.pdf This matter has become urgent as the property owner has served eviction notices on the current tenants and these notices indicate that the property will be demolished. The property is not currently on the City's Heritage Register and, as such, is not subject to any heritage review or permit. Designation will ensure that any values and attributes that are determined by the heritage evaluation process will be monitored and protected.
