THE HISTORY Originally opened in 1930 as “Eaton’s Seventh Floor,” The Carlu was spearheaded by businessman Timothy Eaton. Lady Eaton, who aspired to bring high society and world-class culture to Toronto, was actively involved in the planning and design of Eaton’s College Street and the Seventh Floor. To realize her desire for style and elegance, she com- missioned famed French architect, Jacques Carlu. Carlu was renowned for his masterpieces in the Art Moderne style, known as streamlined monumentalism for its clean lines and grand scale. The Seventh Floor exemplified this style in every element, including the colour palette, architectural details, artwork, room appointments, as well as the glorious Lalique fountain gracing the centre of The Round Room. In fact, it is said that the sheer beauty and unique shape of The Round Room may have inspired the design of The Rockefeller Center’s iconic Rainbow Room. In 2003, the space at 444 Yonge St. in College Park was reopened as “The Carlu” event venue after an extensive restoration. Now recognized as one of Toronto’s best examples of Art Moderne architecture, The Carlu has been designated as a National Historic Site of Canada, and has played host to royalty on sev- eral occasions, as the preferred space for high profile social fetes, conventions, and corporate celebrations.

  • Music Strategy Downtown Yonge Bia June 2015 Is Music Important to Toronto?
    MUSIC STRATEGY DOWNTOWN YONGE BIA JUNE 2015 IS MUSIC IMPORTANT TO TORONTO? Research shows that the arts matter to Torontonians in diverse and profound ways. Not only do arts and culture contribute $11.3 billion to the city’s economy every year, they also employ 174,0001 people. The arts bring tourists to the city, help support local business, and create a more livable city. Music, in particular, is dear to Torontonians. The city is the largest music market in Canada, the fifth largest in North America, and home to record labels and recording studios, plus both commercial and not-for-profit music enterprises2. WHAT DOES MUSIC HAVE TO DO WITH A BIA? Quite a lot, as it turns out. An effective BIA develops a keen understanding of economic development opportunities for its businesses and its district economy. Typically, competitiveness comes from offering something unique— something that is irreplaceable. The idea of a music strategy is to preserve a distinctly unique Toronto experience and connect that to a distinctly unique Toronto future, to generate economic vitality. Perhaps most important is the role that a BIA can play to advocate for the music sector with federal, provincial and local funding agencies. Downtown Yonge Business Improvement Area (DYBIA), for example, acts a facilitator and partner in support of various music events, including: • DYBIA partnered with MonstrARTity to secure funding through the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund (OCAF) to present the Monster Rock Orchestra on Yonge-Dundas Square in May 2015; and 1 Toronto Arts Foundation, www.torontoartsresearch. • DYBIA’s summer ambassador team, which has been partly funded by Service org/artsfacts Canada in the past, works as event support throughout the summer months.

  • STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Extension of the Yonge Street Cultural Corridor from Dundas Street North to Davenport Road
    STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Extension of the Yonge Street Cultural Corridor from Dundas Street north to Davenport Road Date: October 30 , 2013 To: Economic Development Committee From: General Manager Economic Development and Culture Wards: All Reference Number: SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to recommend the extension of the Yonge Street Cultural Corridor from Dundas Street north to Davenport Road. This report is part of finalizing the North Downtown Yonge Planning Framework (NDYPF) and is meant to reinforce an official plan amendment with area specific policies and urban design guidelines as the implementation tools. Approved by City Council in 2001, the Waterfront Culture and Heritage Infrastructure Plan shows the Yonge Street Cultural Corridor terminating at Dundas Street. The goal of the Plan was to create a distinctive framework through which to visualize the cultural landscape of Toronto's central waterfront; to connect it to the larger waterfront and integrate it with important cultural and heritage resources in the city core. Since 2001, a significant amount of cultural infrastructure along Yonge from Dundas Street north to Davenport Road has been established, reinforcing the concept of extending Yonge Street as a cultural corridor. This portion of Yonge Street north of Dundas Street has undergone multimillion dollars in construction and renovations to cultural facilities with several of the renovations involving adaptive reuse of heritage buildings. Staff Report for action on Extension of the Yonge Street Cultural Corridor RECOMMENDATIONS The General Manager of Economic Development and Culture recommends that: 1. The Yonge Street Cultural Corridor be extended from Dundas Street north to Davenport Road.

  • Bibliography on Canadian Marketing
    References on the History of Canadian Marketing Found in Textbooks, Journals and Other Sources From the Seventeenth Century to the Present Compiled and Partially Annotated by Robert D. Tamilia PhD Professor of Marketing Department of Marketing, ESG-UQAM With the assistance of Stanley J. Shapiro PhD Former Dean and Professor Emeritus, Simon Fraser University (Updated July, 2011) The literature cited in this bibliography is far more extensive than the select list of recommended references we published in the Journal of Historical Research in Marketing (Shapiro and Tamilia, 2011). This is the “Master List” from which a recommended set of references was selected for the annotated bibliography that appeared in JHRM. Also, the JHRM article provided references up to the beginning of WW2. This Master list goes beyond that period and attempts to be current. References from newspapers and trade magazines are largely ignored in this listing. However, some are included because they had been subsequently referenced in texts that were consulted. Searching every issue in trade magazines over the past one hundred years or more in order to locate all relevant marketing articles would have been an enormous task. Also, even locating early issues of such trade magazines as Canadian Grocer , Canadian Magazine , Industrial Canada, Marketing Magazine, Financial Post Magazine, Executive , and many others no longer published would have taken far more time and effort than we had available. Fortunately, some of this literature was cited in the Mallen and Litvak (1966) annotated bibliography on Canadian marketing. However, the majority of the references cited in their 119 page monograph were authored between 1960 and 1966.

  • Toronto, ON]: Barlow Books, 2018
    Fredrik S. Eaton, Between Stone and Stars: A Memoir. [Toronto, ON]: Barlow Books, 2018. v + 276pp., photographs, resources. Cloth: Cdn $20.00. Fredrik S. Eaton was the president, chairman and chief executive officer of the T. Eaton Co. from 1977 to 1988. Eaton’s was probably the greatest of Canadian retailers and still is sorely missed by many. He was the fifth of his family to head the firm, just before the calamitous decade that resulted in its bankruptcy. It is rare for a major Canadian businessman to publish a memoir, and this book of almost 300 pages, produced with the assistance of Douglas Hunter, is welcome for being both elegantly written and good- humoured as well as occasionally revelatory. Eaton was approaching 80 when writing it for all his descendants rather than for students of Canadian business history. In some places charmingly self- deprecatory and in others surprisingly candid, the book is naturally decorous in alluding to, or in failing to allude to, family difficulties. Discretion is the prerogative of a such an author, following the well- mannered autobiography of his grandmother Lady Eaton (Flora McCrea Eaton, Memory’s Wall (Toronto, 1956). Although his memoir contains no references, at its end it lists “Resources” consulted or quoted from, and they are a useful point of departure for anyone wishing to follow up. Almost all memoirs can be of inherent interest to historians and this one is no exception. First, this is a primary account of what has been described as the “Canadian establishment”, as celebrated in books by Peter Newman and others.
