CITY DAIRY CO., Lmited TORONTO PREFACE TjTHE Seventh edition of the BLUE BOOK possesses some features which we trust will entitle it to retain the high place in public favor that has been accorded its predecessors. We desire especially to thank our lady patrons for their cordial appreciation of our efforts. Neither time nor money has been spared to make this work as complete and valuable as possible. The difficulty attending the compiling of such a book can be easily appreciated; and we therefore trust that any omissions will be brought to our notice, that they may be corrected in future. We hope to make the BLUE BOOK as nearly perfect as it is possible to make such a volume. We do not claim the BLUE BOOK is either a City Directory or absolutely an Elite Directory; neither do we pretend to pass upon the social or financial standing of the parties whose names are contained therein. It is simply a compilation of about four thousand names of the most prominent householders of Toronto, Hamilton and London, and numerous smaller towns, published in the most convenient form for reference by our lady patrons. The title "BLUE BOOK" is given the work because of its blue cover. It does not refer to blue blood, as many people sup pose. Webster s definition of Blue Book is as follows: "Blue Book a book containing a list of fashionable addresses." The data for this work have not been compiled from circulars or from other directories. Experienced men, particularly adapted for such work, have been assigned to each locality, and the greatest care has been used in selecting these names. Please send any information you may have that will aid in keeping the records correct to Dau Publishing Co, 22 Toronto Street, Toronto, Ont.

  • The Evolving Muskoka Vacation Experience 1860-1945 by Geoffrey
    The Evolving Muskoka Vacation Experience 1860-1945 by Geoffrey Shifflett A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 © Geoffrey Shifflett 2012 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation examines the development of tourism in Muskoka in the Canadian Shield region from 1860 to 1945. Three key themes are examined: the tourists, the resorts and projected image of the area. When taken together, they provide insight into the origin and evolution of the meanings attached to tourist destinations in the Canadian Shield. The Muskoka Lakes region provides the venue in which continuity and change in each of these elements of the tourism landscape are explored. This dissertation uses previously underutilized primary source materials ranging from hotel ledgers, financial reports, personal correspondence, period brochures, guidebooks, and contemporary newspaper articles to reconstruct the Muskoka tourist experience over an extended period of time. The volume of literature pertaining to American tourism history significantly outweighs similar work conducted on Canadian destinations. This dissertation, therefore, begins with an overview of key works related to the historical development of tourism in the United States followed by a survey of corresponding Canadian literature. The lack of an analytical structure in many tourist historical works is identified as a methodological gap in the literature.

  • King Street East Properties (Leader Lane to Church Street) Date: June 14, 2012
    STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act – King Street East Properties (Leader Lane to Church Street) Date: June 14, 2012 Toronto Preservation Board To: Toronto and East York Community Council From: Director, Urban Design, City Planning Division Wards: Toronto Centre-Rosedale – Ward 28 Reference P:\2012\Cluster B\PLN\HPS\TEYCC\September 11 2012\teHPS34 Number: SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act the properties identified in Recommendation No. 2. The properties are located on the south side of King Street East between Leader Lane and Church Street and contain a series of commercial and institutional buildings dating from the mid-19th to the early 20th century. The City has received an application for a zoning by-law amendment for the redevelopment of this block. Following research and evaluation, staff have determined that the King Street East properties meet Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation under the Ontario Heritage Act. The designation of the properties would enable City Council to regulate alterations to the sites, enforce heritage property standards and maintenance, and refuse demolition. RECOMMENDATIONS City Planning Division recommend that: 1. City Council include the following properties on the City of Toronto Inventory of Heritage Properties: a. 71 King Street East (with a convenience address of 73 King Street East) b. 75 King Street East (with a convenience address of 77 King Street East) c. 79 King Street East (with a convenience address of 81 King Street East) Staff report for action – King Street East Properties – Intention to Designate 1 d.
