This report recommends that City Council include the property at 22 Rose Park Drive on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register for its cultural heritage value. The subject property is north of St. Clair Avenue East and west of Mount Pleasant Road, situated on the north side of Rose Park Drive, between Inglewood Drive and Clifton Road in the Moore Park neighbourhood. It contains a two storey stucco-clad house constructed in c.1909, designed in the Dutch Colonial Revival style.

The building is a rare and unique example of the style within the neighbourhood, and is amongst the earliest houses built within the Moore Park neighbourhood, representing the earliest period in the historical land development of the area. The Reverend Joseph Locke House (c.1909) is among the first houses developed as part of the Moore Park subdivision envisioned by the politician, businessman and land speculator John Thomas Moore, and has associations with both the Locke and Moore families. A Heritage Property Nomination was submitted to Heritage Planning in fall 2020 to protect one of the few wood frame dwellings within the Moore Park Neighbourhood. City staff undertook further research and evaluation and determined that the property at 22 Rose Park Drive meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, the criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, which the City of Toronto also applies when evaluating properties for its Heritage Register. Properties on the Heritage Register will be conserved and maintained in accordance with the Official Plan Heritage Policies.
