As the city filed it

This report responds to Toronto and East York Community Council's request in October 2021 for an update on the status of the heritage reports for the historic industrial buildings in the 'Carlaw - Dundas' Study Area and recommends that City Council include nine properties with cultural heritage value on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register. A number of the properties recommended for listing were initially identified as being of heritage interest through the 2014 Carlaw + Dundas Community Initiative and were evaluated in a subsequent 2016 Heritage Analysis Report prepared by the project's consultant, Unterman McPhail Associates.

Staff are recommending that nine of the properties in the consultant's 2016 report be included on the Heritage Register. All have all been researched and evaluated by staff using the criteria prescribed by the Province and all of the recommended properties meet one or more of the provincial criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest for designation under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act, which the City applies when assessing properties for inclusion on the City's Heritage Register. These Dundas-Carlaw properties are part of an important collection of former factory/warehouse and garage buildings that were constructed during the first two decades of the 20th century when the area emerged as a bustling industrial centre that was vitally important to the Toronto economy. Today this collection of buildings support the historic character of the area along Carlaw Avenue north of Queen Street and contribute to vibrancy of a mixed-use creative and cultural hub within Leslieville.
