1.0 INTRODUCTION

Transit City Group (TCG) retained Unterman McPhail Associates to conduct a cultural heritage landscape and built heritage assessment on behalf of the TTC for the planning and preliminary design study for the study corridor from Martin Grove Road in the west along Eglinton Avenue to Kennedy Road in the east. The report includes the associated Lester B. Pearson International Airport Extension study corridor. The study follows the Ontario’s Transit Project Assessment process (TPA) in accordance with Ontario Regulation 231/08 for Transit Projects and Greater Toronto Transportation Authority Undertakings (Transit Projects Regulation). The transit project assessment process applies to selected transit projects as identified in the regulation and exempts other transit projects from the requirements of the Environmental Assessment Act. The process under the regulation requires public sector proponents to assess negative impacts of their chosen transit project, identify appropriate mitigation measures and to undertake consultation. Proponents must also make available any information or documentation done for any pre- planning work undertaken which lead them to select the transit project. This Cultural Heritage Assessment Report (CHAR) forms part of the Environmental Project Report (EPR).

Figure 2: Location of Eglinton Crosstown LRT Study Corridor, City of Toronto [TTC, 2009].

Ultimately the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, which is approximately 31 kilometres in length, will run from Kennedy TTC Station in the east to the Lester B. Pearson International Airport in the west. For the Martin Grove Road to Kennedy Road section it is proposed that the LRT will operate at surface in the centre of Eglinton Avenue from Martin Grove Road to Black Creek and from Leslie Street to Kennedy Road. It is proposed the route will be underground between Keele Street and Leslie Street.

2.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT & CULTURAL HERITAGE RESOURCES

The need for the identification, evaluation, management and conservation of Ontario's heritage is acknowledged as an essential component of environmental assessment and municipal planning in Ontario. For the most part, the analysis of cultural heritage resources in the study area addresses those above-ground, person-made heritage resources over 40 years old. The application of this rolling forty year principle is an accepted federal and provincial practice for the Figure 1: Location of Lester B. Pearson International Airport Extension Study Corridor, City of preliminary identification of cultural heritage resources that may be of heritage value. Its Toronto [TTC, 2009]. application does not imply however that all built heritage resources or cultural heritage

When John Graves Simcoe became the Station Lieutenant-Governor of Upper Canada he subdivided the four districts into 19 counties for the purpose of parliamentary representation and military organization. The County of City of Toronto, Heritage Preservation Services was contacted and the City of Toronto York was one of the original counties established in 1791. In the same year the districts Inventory of Heritage Properties consulted in regard to cultural heritage issues. Ten (10) were renamed. The Township of York and the Township of Scarborough were included properties within and adjacent to the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit (LRT) Martin within the County of York in the Home District, formerly Nassau District.

A row of eleven townships was laid out in 1791 along Lake Ontario in a westerly Townships. By the mid 1820s, stagecoaches travelled up and down Yonge Street on a direction from the Trent River. The future Etobicoke, York and Scarborough formed the regular basis. three most westerly townships. Augustus Jones, Deputy Provincial Surveyor, undertook the initial survey along the fronts of the townships of Etobicoke, York and Scarborough Settlement in Etobicoke was very sparse during the early 1800s. Settlements grew up in 1791. Mr. Aitkin assisted in Etobicoke Township. Additional work was carried out in around the mills situated along the Humber River, including John Scarlett's mills on both subsequent years to complete the surveys. A significant impetus to growth in the region the east and west bank of the Humber post 1830; the two mills owned by John Dennis, came in 1796 with Simcoe’s selection of York as the new capital of Upper Canada. northeast corner of Eglinton and Humber River, 1801; the Scarlett-Canning Mill on the Simcoe erected the defences at Fort York, laid out a nearby town site, built a sawmill on west bank of the Humber east of Scarlett Road above Eglinton, 1831; as well as the mills the Humber River and undertook the construction of Yonge Street from York to Lake at Weston. The principal 19th century roads linking Etobicoke to York were Dundas Simcoe for military purposes. Street and Scarlett's Road.

Etobicoke was first surveyed in 1793. The mapping of the township was carried out in Dundas Street was opened as a principal transportation route from York to the west in the intervals over a number of years until 1838. The northern part of Township of Etobicoke 1790s, and was extended to Lambton Mills on the Humber River, then into Etobicoke was surveyed in concessions running north-south, the western three concessions being Township and westward to Toronto Township in Peel County and onward to numbered, and the eastern ones referred to as A, B, and C. The southern portion was southwestern Ontario. An Aboriginal trail, know referred to as The Toronto Carrying surveyed into smaller rows of concessions, some numbered from west to east and others Place/Humber Trail ran along the Humber River from Lake Ontario to the upper Great running north to south. The Humber River formed the boundary between Etobicoke and Lakes and the north and became a shortcut to the upper Great Lakes for traders, York Townships. explorers, and missionaries. Scarlett Road was named for local mill owner John Scarlett who settled in the area during the 1820s and built a mill on the west bank of the Humber The Township of York originally encompassed all of the land between Victoria Park River in 1821 just south of the Richview Sideroad.

The rest was surveyed with concessions set 1- miles apart, extending east to Great Lakes by Lt-Governor John Graves Simcoe, formed the centre north-south west. Yonge Street formed the centre north-south concession line within the township concession line within York Township. It was opened as far as Sheppard Avenue by May and concessions were numbered east and west from Yonge Street. Road allowances were 1794 and completed to Lake Simcoe by February 1796. Eglinton Avenue or the Base provided between concessions at every fifth lot.

Road allowances were provided between concessions and every second lot. Smith’s Canadian Gazetteer (1846) described Etobicoke, York and Scarborough as townships in the Home District. Etobicoke Township had 24,934 acres of land taken up Generally settled in the early1800s, the three York County townships were transformed with 12,516 acres under cultivation. York Township had 55,236 acres of land taken up by mid century into agricultural landscapes with small hamlets and villages. Early with 24,238 acres under cultivation. Scarborough Township had 38,709 acres occupied settlement focused on Yonge Street within the Township of York.

War II period the most predominant.

For the purposes of the survey, particular attention was paid to the identification of built heritage resources and cultural heritage landscapes in the areas noted as proposed underground locations, portal and fire vent locations and bus terminal spaces. Since the sections of Eglinton Avenue where the LRT will operate at surface (Martin Grove to Jane and Leslie to Kennedy Station) have enough space within the existing road allowance to accommodate two lanes of traffic in each direction and dedicated LRT transit lanes and surface stop platforms in the centre of the road, the cultural heritage resources identified in these areas are, for the most part, adjacent to the two sections of the study corridor. In the area of the proposed 13 kilometre underground section between Keele Street and Leslie Street, it is proposed the underground stations will be located about 850 metres apart, typically at intersections where existing north-south bus routes or the Yonge and Spadina Subway lines cross Eglinton Avenue. Therefore, built heritage resources and Unterman McPhail Associates February 2010 discrete cultural heritage landscapes identified at these intersections and located within Heritage Resource Management Consultants the station areas and infrastructure areas are considered to be within the study area.
