  • The Knox Ottawa Building
    THE KNOX OTTAWA BUILDING Although it looks ancient, the current Knox Church was built in 1932. It is the third building occupied by this congregation since its founding in 1844. It outgrew its first building, and lost its second, on what was then City Hall Square, to expropriation when the Prime Minister, William Lyon Mackenzie King, decided that the National War Memorial would be a centerpiece of the capital. Prime Minister King was a member of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, still situated on Wellington only a few blocks west of Knox’s location at that time, but he took a personal interest in the new building. The distinctive square Norman tower was his suggestion. The architect for Knox was Henry Sproatt. Born in Toronto in 1866, he trained in Europe and New York and was a Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects. Before designing Knox, he had designed many buildings on the University of Toronto campus including Victoria College, Burwash Hall, Hart House, Soldier’s Clarion Tower and the Princess Margaret Hospital. Here in Ottawa he also designed the National Research Council Laboratories on Sussex Street. The rough stonework is local Nepean Sandstone. The dressed stonework around the doors, the copings and the tracery of the windows is of Wallace sandstone from Nova Scotia, and the walls of the sanctuary are lined with Savoniere stone from France. The columns and archways, and the frieze over the elder’s seats in the chancel are of Devon stone, precut and dressed in France then shipped to Canada. Travertine marble, imported from Italy, was used for the floors, bases of the columns pulpit, lectern and elder’s seats – and for the baptismal font, which was cut from a single block.

  • 2669-2673 Lake Shore Boulevard West
    STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act – 2669-2673 Lake Shore Boulevard West Date: April 20, 2011 Toronto Preservation Board To: Etobicoke York Community Council From: Acting Director, Policy & Research, City Planning Division Wards: Ward 6 – Etobicoke-Lakeshore Reference P:\2011\Cluster B\PLN\HPS\EYCC\May 25 2011\eyHPS02 Number: SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the properties at 2669-2673 Lake Shore Boulevard West (Gardener’s Cottage, Fetherstonhaugh Estate) under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. At its meeting of February 16, 2011, the Etobicoke York Community Council deferred consideration of a report (January 27, 2011) from the Director and Deputy Chief Building Official on a demolition control application to its meeting of May 25, 2011, and requested Heritage Preservation Services to report at that time on the potential heritage value of the building. Following research and evaluation, staff have determined that the properties at 2669- 2673, containing a gardener’s cottage associated with the former Fetherstonhaugh Estate, meet the criteria for municipal designation prescribed by the Province of Ontario for its cultural heritage value. The designation of the properties would enable Council to refuse demolition, control alterations to the sites, and enforce heritage property standards. Staff report for action – 2669-2673 Lake Shore Boulevard West - Intention to Designate 1 RECOMMENDATIONS The City Planning Division recommends that: 1. City Council include the properties at 2669-2673 Lake Shore Boulevard West (Gardener’s Cottage, Fetherstonhaugh Estate) on the City of Toronto Inventory of Heritage Properties.
