FINANCIAL IMPACT There are no financial implications resulting from the adoption of this report. DECISION HISTORY On May 12, 1999, the City of Toronto enacted By-law No. 266-1999 designating the property at 201 Guildwood Parkway as being of historical value or interest. http://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/bylaws/1999/law0266.pdf At its meeting of June 14, 15 and 16, 2005, Toronto City Council amended designating by-law 266-1999 for the subject property under the Ontario Heritage Act to include Building 191 and the Sculpture Studio. http://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/2005/agendas/committees/sc/sc050531/it004.pdf At its meeting of August 25, 26, 27, and 28, 2014, Toronto City Council endorsed a conservation strategy for the Guild Inn on the subject property that rehabilitated the building for use as a restaurant, banquet hall, and conference and event centre. The designating by-law and statement of significance were also amended and additional cultural heritage attributes including landscape features and views were added as heritage attributes. http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2014.SC34.19 BACKGROUND Development Proposal The subject property at 201 Guildwood Parkway is owned by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and is under long-term lease to the City of Toronto. The site is known as the Guild Park and Gardens and is operated by the City as a public Park. In 2014 Council endorsed the rehabilitation the Guild Inn for use as a restaurant, banquet hall, and conference and event centre. The original central building of the Guild Inn, the Bickford House, was restored, later additions were removed, and new wings were constructed to facilitate the new use. The banquet hall and conference and event centre, the Guild Inn Estate, is under long-term lease and opened in 2017. The current proposal is for the adaptive reuse of Building 191 as a City of Toronto Arts and Cultural facility to be known as the Clark Centre for the Arts. Building 191 is located on the western portion of the property west of the Bickford House. The Alterations to a Designated Property - 201 Guildwood Parkway Page 3 of 23 applicant has submitted a Site Plan application (17 232793 ESC 43 SA) that would see a third-storey addition added to the existing two storey building. The existing lobby and mechanical room would be removed and a new two-storey glazed lobby would be built in its place. The interior of the existing building would be modified to suite its new use. The Site Plan application is currently under review by the City Planning Division. Heritage Resources The property at 201 Guildwood Parkway is designated under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value, and meets the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation under the three categories of design, associative and contextual values. Located on the south side of Guildwood Parkway (in the Guildwood neighbourhood southwest of Kingston Road and Morningside Avenue) where it overlooks the Scarborough Bluffs and Lake Ontario, the Guild Inn is a significant landscaped open space in Scarborough that includes four historic buildings, a collection of outdoor sculpture and important views. The Guild Inn (Guild Park and Gardens) has cultural heritage value as a unique place in Toronto where a group of historic buildings associated with the city's cultural development is set in open space and parkland overlooking the Scarborough Bluffs. The structures are adjoined by a collection of outdoor public art, with both the buildings and the sculpture situated to terminate significant views. The centrepiece of the Guild Inn is the Bickford House (1914), which was designed for Ranelagh Park, Colonel Harold Child Bickford's country estate. The Bickford House is an important example of an early 20th century country house in Scarborough that was designed in the Period Revival style with Arts and Crafts detailing. Acquired in 1932 and expanded as the nucleus of the Guild of All Arts, the Bickford House is complemented by the Sculpture Cabin (1940, by Danish wood sculptor, Aage Madsen), and Building 191 (completed in 1963 as an office and art repository), which were specifically commissioned for the site. The property contains the Osterhaut Cabin, a log cabin that purportedly dates to the late 18th century, stands as one of the oldest surviving structures in Toronto, and contributed in the 20th century to the artistic endeavours at the Guild Inn. The associative value of the Guild Inn relates to its links to the cultural history of Toronto as the place where the Guild of All Arts

  • Guild Park & Horticulture Plans
    SECTION 2 : plan context GUILD PARK & GARDENS horticulture plan | 2018 9 10 GUILD PARK & GARDENS horticulture plan | 2018 history The Guild Park and Gardens has a long and illustrious history, which began with the parceling of land tracts for distribution to Loyalists following the American Revolutionary War. One of the property’s earliest owners, William Ousterhout, while never having lived on the site, has come to be associated with the log cabin that bears his name. The Ousterhout Log Cabin has been dated back to approximately 1850 and persists to this day as one of four designated heritage buildings on the Park site. The property changed hands many times in the 19th and early 20th century. In 1914, owner General Bickford, created the Ranelagh Park View of Bickford House and an event tent, country estate on the site and built the Bickford House as a summer 2000 resort. The estate house formed the nucleus for the Guild Inn, which is now a designated cultural heritage building. In 1932 Rosa Hewetson purchased the over 450 acre property, where she married Spencer Clark. The same year, she and Spencer formed the Guild of All Arts. Inspired by the arts and crafts community at Roycroft, New York State, ‘The Guild of All Arts’ started as a social contribution in the depression years, providing a home and a forum for artists and artisans, where their work was created and collected for the enjoyment of many. There is still a significant public art collection on the site. The Guild of All Arts was active from 1932 until 1942 and, after the war, from 1947 until Spencer Clark’s death in the 1980s.

Printed in Canada PREFACE Preceding volumes in this series have traced the immortal record of the R.C.A.F. overseas from February î94o to the end of August 1944. This third volume deals with the final surge for- ward by the Allies to the complete collapse and final surrender of the Nazis in May 1945, followed three months later by the capitulation of their Japanese partners. It completes the story of the operational activities of the R.C.A.F. squadrons overseas in the great war against totalitarianism. The three volumes have traced the growth of the R.C.A.F. overseas from the small contingent of 1940 to the powerful, well-balanced force it had become by the close of the conflict– the fourth largest air force fighting in the Allied cause. The vol- umes have presented the record of this force in the British Isles, North Africa, Sicily, Italy, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Ceylon, Burma and Iceland, and over the broad waters of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans.
