Box 169 Grimsby, ON L3M 4G3 Re: 133 & 137 Main Street East Dear Sir: We have been retained as heritage structural consultants for the proposed relocation of the Nelles House at 133 Main Street East in Grimsby. While we have not yet had time to develop the complete design and details for the proposed relocation, we have looked at the house and we are confident that it can be successfully moved and restored. We have reviewed your comments in your letter of July 22, 2019 to the IBI Group, specifically items 2 & 4 in the comments on the HIA. Item 2 requests clarification regarding the preservation of the stone foundation when the dwelling is moved. We believe that preservation of the visible portion of the stone foundation between grade and the brick would meet the intent of the designating bylaw and the approach which we have used on previous similar projects is to salvage the stone from the foundation, place the building on a new concrete foundation constructed with a shelf in the concrete, and re-lay the salvaged stone so no concrete is visible in the finished project. In cases where the stone wall is of particular importance, we have documented the positions of the stones and replaced them exactly as originally located on the building, although in most cases the use of the salvaged material laid in a pattern matching the original is sufficient to meet the intent.

  • Two Churches by Frank Wills: St. Peter's, Barton, and St
    ANALYSIS I ANALYSE TWO CHURCHES BY FRANK WILLS: ST. PETER'S, BARTON, AND ST. PAUL:S, GLANFORD, AND THE ECCLESIOLOGICAL GOTHIC REVIVAL IN ONTARI01 Professor MALCOLM THURLBY, Ph 0., F.S A., >MALCOLM THURLBY enjoys cooking, watching soccer, and driving his wife's BMW Z3 whilst listening to the music of Roy Wood. His latest book, Romanesque Architecture and Sculpture in Wales, was published by Logaston Press, Almeley (Hel'efordshirel. in June 2006. n his entry on Frank Wills (1822-1857) Iin the Dictionary of Canadian Biogra­ phy, Douglas Richardson wrote: "It could be argued that Frank Wills was the most important Gothic Revival architect of his generation in North America, even though he is one of the least known figures today. His obscurity must be due partly to the widespread range of his work-from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Gulf of Mexico to the St. Law­ rence River-and partly to his early death." 2 Richardson's assessment is quite accurate, for although Wills's Anglican cathedrals in Fredericton and Montreal are generally given an important place in the history of Canadian architecture, 3 and Fredericton has often received interna­ tional recognition,4 his role in the Gothic Revival elsewhere in North America is little studied.' Nowhere is this more evident than in Ontario where his work has been almost completely ignored.' To some extent, this is understandable in that there are just three Wills churches documented in Ontario, of which only one survives. That legacy is eclipsed by that of William Hay (1818-1888), who arrived in Toronto in 1853.

  • "A Strange Aesthetic Ferment
    "A STRANGE AESTHETIC FERMENT Malcolm Ross w. ONE LOOKS DOWN over Fredericton from the hills where Charles Roberts and Bliss Carman once took their long hikes with George Parkin, one still sees the spire of Bishop Medley's Cathedral rising above a city hidden in elms. Old Frederictonians, whether they be Anglican or Roman, Baptist or Marxist, think first of their Cathedral whenever they think of home. George Goodridge Roberts, the father of Charles and Theodore (and Bliss Carman's uncle) was Canon of the Cathedral and Rector of the parish church of St. Anne's. George Parkin, headmaster of the Collegiate School in Fredericton, was an active Cathedral layman. Something should be said about the coincidence at just the right time of the Tractarian Bishop, his Gothic Cathedral, the great teacher whose classroom had no walls, "the new music, the new colours, the new raptures of Pre-Raphaelite poetry",1 and the young and eager spirits ready to respond to the peculiar genius of this place and this time. "The Fredericton of those days", Charles G. D. Roberts recalls, "was a good place for a poet to be." It was "stirring with a strange aesthetic ferment." Tiny as it was, with no more than six thousand inhabitants, Fredericton was nonetheless a capital city, a university city, a cathedral city : She had little of the commercial spirit, and I fear was hardly as democratic as is nowaday considered the proper thing to be. But she was not stagnant, and she was not smug. Instead of expecting all the people to be cut of one pattern, she seemed to prefer them to be just a little queer...

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.
