It is a building complex containing an original collection of two four-storey factory-type buildings at 582-592 King Street West and one four-storey factory-type building and two-storey wing at 473 Adelaide Street West - all constructed between 1902 and 1911 by the Canadian Kodak Company Ltd. A single-storey garage constructed c.1928-1931 was added by Ontario Silknit Ltd. The property was listed on the City's Heritage Register in 2005 and identified as contributing in the King-Spadina Heritage Conservation District, adopted by City Council in 2017 and currently under appeal. Following city staff's additional research and evaluation under Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation, it has been determined that the property at 582 King Street West merits designation under Part IV Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its design, associative and contextual value. The property is currently subject to an application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit a mixed-use development with retail and commercial uses. The application has been appealed to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT). The designation of the property at 582 King Street West would identify all of the property's cultural heritage values and heritage attributes which shall be conserved. Designation enables City Council to review applications to the site, enforce heritage property standards and maintenance and refuse demolition.
