Elaine Henley Elaine Henley City Clerk t. 576-8202 c. 691-0451 From: Sent: Friday, November 27, 2020 1:12 PM To: CityClerk <[email protected]> Subject: (EXT) Parrish Lane Development 66-68 Queens Road Good Afternoon Ms. Henley I’m writing today to voice my support for this project. I believe the benefits to the City far out way the nay sayers. Mr. Pardy has considered and taken into account the area surrounding this development and has proposed a project that will enhance this part of the downtown area. Also, to the Cities benefit, is the tax revenue that will be generated and you will not have any capital equipment outlay because you are already plowing the roads and sidewalks . I wish Mr. Pardy the best of luck and hope that council will support this development.

Elaine Henley Elaine Henley City Clerk t. 576-8202 c. 691-0451 From: Sent: Tuesday, November 24, 2020 1:47 PM To: CityClerk <[email protected]> Subject: (EXT) Application 66‐68 Queens Road City Clerk, Mayor and Councillors: Machiavelli was right that change is dangerous because "he who innovates will have as his enemies all those who are well off under the existing order of things". For the proposed development at 66-68 Queen’s Road, those that who are “well off under the existing order of things” are the residents of Garrison Hill. They have enjoyed the use of the Church's land for decades. To support the status quo they have seized the false narrative that the proposed development will destroy the ”Last Naturalized Green Space in Downtown St. John's”. Really? The City’s “St. John’s Urban Forest Management Master Plan" 2006 identified over 50,000 trees on City property, predominantly in the downtown area. The developer is proposing to remove six trees. Not 60 or 600 or 6,000. Six! Assembling a petition with over 4,000 signatures on the false premise the proposed development site was the “Last Naturalized Green Space in Downtown St. John's” was a great tactic. Just not accurate. This is a well thought-out development bringing more residents to downtown St. John's and deserves the support of our City.

In the terms of reference set by the City, the developer was required to consult with and seek the views of adjacent neighbours before filing their revised LUAR. The City is required to inform neighbours within 150 meters of a proposed zoning change that such a rezoning request has been made. We are among those neighbours. Neither the Basilica Parish, nor the Archdiocese of St. John's, nor the BHF received any notifications about this development from the City. There are at least two Roman Catholic heritage properties within the immediate 150-meter zone. The first is the old Catholic Cemetery (1811-1846) on Long's Hill, next to the land for which rezoning is sought. The second property within the 150-meter zone is the Basilica Cathedral/Episcopal Library/Archbishop's Palace. We believe that the proposed mixed commercial CCM zoning, with all the commercial activity it implies, in which no buffers are required and in which developers can build right to the boundaries, is inappropriate to be granted immediately adjacent to the Old Roman Catholic Cemetery on Long's Hill, and inappropriate to be located in the middle of the City's Heritage Area 1. The proposed building at Parish Lane is only slated to have 8 visitor parking spaces. This will place unacceptable pressure on the parking spaces surrounding the Basilica Cathedral, which often are at capacity from daily traffic. We also understand that while the developer asked for one zoning, City planning officials have suggested that he apply for a different zoning. But once a zoning change is granted by the City, before a project begins, the developer may then opt to entirely change the proposed design. Instead of a condo tower, the site could see other intrusive commercial developments. Or the developer could sell the property, having been given by the City's rezoning a far more attractive and lucrative property. Neighbours then have no recourse once the zoning is changed. The rezoning that City officials in the planning department have suggested for this development is unprecedented in the heart of the Downtown Heritage District one, and in the heart of the Ecclesiastical National Historic District. It could destroy the view-planes to our structures from elsewhere in the city. It could impair the right of National/Provincial/City Historic Sites and designated structures under city current planning regulations to be surrounded by buildings with sympathetic architectural and roof profiles and complementary massing of structures which do not overwhelm the heritage architecture. Finally, the heritage district standards as stated in the City's regulations are NOT outdated and they must not 1 be dismissed but rather they must be recognized as the muscle and sinew which protect our heritage district. In our view City Council should not allow new developments or design briefs that do not meet these standards. We have serious concerns which have remained unaddressed. How will the Parish Lane Development (PLD) impact the heritage landscape and environment and what Parks Canada calls the commemorative integrity of the Basilica Cathedral National Historic Site and its visibility for 360 degrees around the City? How will the PLD impact the commemorative integrity heritage landscape of the Ecclesiastical District? The Basilica is working with the Anglican Cathedral, Gower Street United Church, and the Kirk towards securing federal funding for the restoration of the Ecclesiastical District, and towards its designation as a World Heritage Site. We have had multiple indications that the PLD could impact our ability to obtain World Heritage Designation because this development will put a modern building in the center of a heritage district which does not reflect ANY of the architectural styles or heritage features of the buildings already here.

  • Introduction Since Time Immemorial, Human Beings Have Used Narrative
    Chapter 1 – Introduction Since time immemorial, human beings have used narrative to help us make sense of our experience of life. From the fireside to the theatre, from the television and silver screen to the more recent manifestations of the virtual world, we have used storytelling as a means of providing structure, order, and coherence to what can otherwise appear an overwhelming infinity of random, unrelated events. In ordering the perceived chaos of the world around us into a structure we can grasp, narrative provides insight and understanding not only of events themselves, but on a more fundamental level, of the very essence of what it means to live as a human being. As the primary means by which historical writing is organized, narrative has attracted a large body of historians and philosophers who have grappled with its impact on our understanding of the past. Underlying their work is the tension between historical writing as a reflection of what took place in the past, and the essence of narrative as a creative, imaginative act. The very structure of Aristotelian narrative, with its causal link between events, its clearly defined beginning, middle and end, its promise of catharsis, its theme or moral, reflects an act of imagination on the part of its author. While an effective narrative first and foremost strives to draw us into its world of story and keep us there until the ending, the primary goal of historical writing, in theory at least, is to increase our understanding about the past. While these two goals are not inherently incompatible, they do not always work in concert.

  • Suzanne OWEN the Demise of the Beothuk As a Past Still Present
    Journal of the Irish Society for the Academic Study of Religions 1/2 (2015) 119 © ISASR 2015 Suzanne OWEN The Demise of the Beothuk as a Past Still Present ABSTRACT: This article aims to investigate contemporary cultural representations of the Beothuk Indians in art, literature and museum displays in Newfoundland, Canada, focussing on ways these reimagine the past for the present, offering perspectives on contested histories, such as the circumstances leading to the demise of the Beothuk. Wiped out through the impact of colonialism, the Beothuk are the ‗absent other‘ who continue to be remembered and made present through the creative arts, largely at the expense of other indigenous groups on the island. Rather than focussing on the ‗non-absent past‘, according to Polish scholar Ewa Domańska, ‗instead we turn to a past that is somehow still present, that will not go away or, rather, that of which we cannot rid ourselves‘ (2006, 346). Depictions of the last Beothuk are part of a cultural remembering where guilt and reconciliation are played out through media of the imagination. KEYWORDS: indigenous, art, representation, memory, Beothuk, Newfoundland Suzanne OWEN is Senior Lecturer in Religious Studies at the University of Chester and Senior Lecturer in Theology and Religious Studies at Leeds Trinity University. Her research interests include critical analysis of ‗indigeneity‘ and other categories, such as ‗religion‘, and their contested usages by different groups; Native American studies; contemporary paganism; and methodological debates in the study of religion. 119 120 Owen: The Demise of the Beothuk Introduction Literary depictions of the Beothuk, an extinct indigenous group in Newfoundland, have gained scholarly attention, but less consideration has been given to contemporary visual representations and public acts of remembering at memorials and sites associated with the Beothuk.
