Copyright © 2017 International Cultural Property Society doi:10.1017/S0940739116000382 Development versus Preservation Interests in the Making of a Music City: A Case Study of Select Iconic Toronto Music Venues and the Treatment of Their Intangible Cultural Heritage Value Sara Gwendolyn Ross* Abstract: Urban redevelopment projects increasingly draw on culture as a tool for rejuvenating city spaces but, in doing so, can overemphasize the economic or exchange-value potential of a cultural space to the detriment of what was initially meaningful about a space—that which carries great cultural community wealth, use-value, or embodies a group’s intangible cultural heritage. Development and preservation interests illustrate this tension in terms of how cultural heritage— both tangible and intangible—is managed in the city. This article will turn to Toronto’s “Music City” strategy that is being deployed as part of a culture- focused urban redevelopment trend and Creative City planning initiative in order to examine how the modern urban intangible merits of city spaces are valuated and dealt with in light of the comparatively weak regard accorded to intangibility within the available heritage protection legal frameworks of Canada, Ontario, and, specifically, Toronto.

Through the application of urban legal anthropology, as well as through a lens drawing on urban legal geography, this dissertation canvases cases of unequal valuation of cultural spaces linked to musical subcultures and Toronto’s redevelopment strategies and Music City initiatives.

  • The Case of the Silver Dollar Room and the Intangible Cultural Heritage Management of Urban Spaces of Culture
    Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University Schulich Law Scholars Articles, Book Chapters, & Blogs Faculty Scholarship 10-2016 Preserving Canadian Music Culture: The Case of the Silver Dollar Room and the Intangible Cultural Heritage Management of Urban Spaces of Culture Sara Gwendolyn Ross Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.schulichlaw.dal.ca/scholarly_works Part of the Cultural Heritage Law Commons Amps Title: Preserving Canadian Music Culture: The Case of the Silver Dollar Room and the Intangible Cultural Heritage Management of Urban Spaces of Culture Author: Sara Gwendolyn Ross Architecture_media_politics_society. vol. 10, no. 2. October 2016 Affiliation: Osgoode Hall Law School, Toronto. Abstract On January 13, 2015, one of Toronto, Canada’s, iconic live music venues, the Silver Dollar Room, officially received cultural heritage designation pursuant to the City of Toronto By-law 57-2015 under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act (“OHA”). What is significant about this designation, is that it was awarded, not on the basis of its physical or tangible heritage attributes but, instead, on the intangible cultural heritage value embodied within the space. Receiving cultural heritage designation is important for the future of the Silver Dollar Room as it has effectively led to the end of plans for its demolition and redevelopment that have been on the table since June 2013. By subjecting the redevelopment approval process to the greater scrutiny required due to cultural heritage designation, the interests of private developers have been better balanced with the artistic and cultural value of the Silver Dollar Room and the associated interests of the live music community culture linked to the space.

  • City of Toronto's Appointment Process to the Board of Trustees for the Art Gallery of Ontario
    MM43.5.1 Grange Community Association www.grangecommunity.ca June 24, 2018 Mayor Tory and Members of City Council Toronto City Hall cc Ralph Daley, President, Grange Community Association Councillor Joe Cressy Stephan Jost, Director, Art Gallery of Ontario Re: MM 43.5 - City of Toronto's Appointment Process to the Board of Trustees for the Art Gallery of Ontario The residents of the Grange neighbourhood support this long overdue commitment to appoint the ward councillor (currently Ward 20 and Ward 24 in the future) to be one of City Council’s two appointments to the Board of Trustees of the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO). This is an important principle to be codified. In December 2016, the Grange Community Association (GCA), as well as the Chair, Board of Trustees of the AGO wrote to urge City Council to continue its past practice of appointing the Ward 20 Councillor. At that time, City Council decided otherwise. For the past few decades residents of the Grange neighbourhood have worked closely with the AGO on a variety of projects, the most recent of which is the acclaimed revitalization of Grange Park. Former Councillor Adam Vaughan, who served on the AGO Board, was central to the establishment of the Grange Park Advisory Committee (GPAC) and was able to present and explain the proposal to his trustee colleagues. Under the previous and subsequent councillors, including myself as an appointed councillor in 2014 and Councillor Cressy, GPAC leveraged Section 37 contributions and funding from a number of private donors, with AGO leadership on fund-raising.
