306-310 Gerrard Street East - Erection of a building on a Heritage Property Designated under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act

Council approval is required for the erection of the new building proposed for the subject lands. Council approval is not needed for the proposed demolition of the existing buildings as the buildings at 306 and 310 Gerrard Street East are not heritage properties, and Council has already approved demolition of the building at 308 Gerrard Street East due to its poor condition and lack of integrity. A pair of Victorian bay-and-gable heritage buildings is adjacent to the subject property to the west at 300 and 302 Gerrard Street East. The proposal is consistent with the heritage planning policy frameworks and meets the objectives of the Cabbagetown South Heritage Conservation District Plan. The impacts of the proposed development on the Cabbagetown South Heritage Conservation District are appropriately mitigated through the compatible design of the new construction.
