The property has evolved physically in its 160-year history, including the loss of the adjacent residential units of the historic row (now a parking lot). The other surviving units are located at 508 and 510 Church Street. Situated within the centre of the Church and Wellesley Village, the subject property is important in defining the area's character. Following research and evaluation, it has been determined that 518 Church Street 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. The property at 518 Church Street is significant due to its design/physical and contextual value. Properties on the Heritage Register will be conserved and maintained in accordance with the Official Plan Heritage Policies.
