THE LAN-DSCAPE OF JEWISH TORONTO: AN E-NATION OF LANDSCAPE AS A REFLECTION OF COMMUNITY Anne Karolyn Rennert Advisor: University of Guelp h, 1998 Professor N. Pollock-EUwand This nudy presents a mode1 for the examination of landscape as a reflection of conununity and explores the distinctiveaess of Toronto's Jewish landscape in order to gain insight into the Life of the city's Jewish community. The study focuses on two centres of Jewish life in Toronto: 'the Ward' and the neighbourhood of Spadina Avenue. the hean of Jewish Toronto during the early 20~century: and the neighbourhood of Bathurst Street. the cwrent centre of Jewish population. Using mapping, archival documents and photographs, hinorical accounts, and direct observation, the study identifies the distincti\.e landscape characteristics of the old and new Jer~ishenclavx and compares the landscape characteristics of the two periods. It demonstrates that the early community of East European Jewish immigrants and the contemporary Jewish community have much in common and niggeas that the landscapes of the old and new Jewish enclaves reflect a shared meaning olcommunity. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 1 would like to thank Nancy Pollock- Eliwand for her enthusiasm, thoughtfuln ess, care, and patience throughout al1 stages of this project. I wouid also iike to thank GiI Stelter for his valuable input and encouraging e-mail messages, Stephen Speisman for his the and assistance, Bob Brown For encouraging me to foilow rny instincts, and my classrnates in the MLA program for their understanding and ficndship. A big thank you must be extended to Neil Stemthal for his eagemess in taking on the roles of photographer and pro~~reader,and for his tremendous entbusiasm insight, and confidence in my ability to succeed. Finally, 1 would like to express my moa sincere appreciation to my parents, brother, and grandrnother for their never-endhg encouragement and support. Anne Rennert Toronto December 1998 When at &st 1 undenook to document the landscape history of Jewish Toronto, I felt somewbat sorry that, as a new resident in the city, this hiaory is not my own. My great-grandparents and grandparents migrated fi-om Eastern Europe to Brooklyn. New York and to Shawinigan, Sherbrooke, and Montreal Quebec. My history is Mbedded in the landscapes of those places. Upon hrther reflection it occurred to me that 1 am in fact, pan of a relatively new wave of Jewish migration to the City of Toronto. 1 am but one of so many young Jewish Montrealers who, unsettled by the threat of Quebec's separation fiom Canada, are drawn to a large and thriving Jewish community that is not too Far away fiom Montreal. Seeu in this light, 1 am a part of Jewish Toronto's recent hiaory, poised to leave my mark, if only a nick or a scratch. on its landscape. It is our shaping perception that makes the dgerence be~eenraw matter urd lurmkcape.

    A Map of Toronto’s Cultural Facilities A Cultural Facilities Analysis 03.01.10 Prepared for: Rita Davies Managing Director of Culture Division of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism Prepared by: ERA Architects Inc. Urban Intelligence Inc. Cuesta Systems Inc. Executive Summary In 1998, seven municipalities, each with its own distinct cultural history and infrastructure, came together to form the new City of Toronto. The process of taking stock of the new city’s cultural facilities was noted as a priority soon after amalgamation and entrusted to the newly formed Culture Division. City Council on January 27, 2000, adopted the recommendations of the Policy and Finance Committee whereby the Commissioner of Economic Development, Culture and Tourism was requested to proceed with a Cultural Facilities Masterplan including needs assessment and business cases for new arts facilities, including the Oakwood - Vaughan Arts Centre, in future years. This report: > considers the City of Toronto’s role in supporting cultural facilities > documents all existing cultural facilities > provides an approach for assessing Toronto’s cultural health. Support for Toronto’s Cultural Facilities Through the Culture Division, the City of Toronto provides both direct and indirect support to cultural activities. Direct support consists of : > grants to individual artists and arts organizations > ongoing operating and capital support for City-owned and operated facilities. Indirect support consists of: > property tax exemptions > below-market rents on City-owned facilities > deployment of Section 37 development agreements. A Cultural Facilities Inventory A Cultural Facility Analysis presents and interprets data about Toronto’s cultural facilities that was collected by means of a GIS (Global Information System) database.

It is part of our final evaluation allowing us to focus our research and educational efforts, after a lengthy period of restructuring, and how we might develop CSJ work in the future. The second part reports on the specific work for the grant.

  • An Examination of Toronto Synagogue Architecture, 1897-1937
    Sharon Graham An Examination of Toronto Synagogue Architecture, 1897-1937 ynagogue architecture often acts as a unique element w ithin Sa city's architectural landsca pe. Toronto's pre-1937 syna­ gogues appea r to have copied each other styli sti ca ll y, creating a unique symbol of Judaism in the city (1937 marks the opening of the third Holy Bl ossom Temple and the beginning of the Jewish community's move away from the downtown core). On the whole, synagogue architecture in Toronto was very conserva ti ve, echoing trends that had lost their favour in other North Ameri­ ca n cities. Toronto congregations appeared to have found one style of building and they never strayed fro m it. Fig . 1. Ex terior. Holy Blossom Synagogue, Bond Street. John Wilson Siddall, architect. 1897. Three styli sti c groups of Toronto's pre-1 937 synagogues ca n {photo Sha ron Graham . 2000) be identified . The first group fea tures sma ll , hall-like buildings with plain ex teri ors and, due to their unremarkable architecture, they will not be d iscussed in this pape r. Other major synagogues, ori ginally built as churches and later bought by the Jewish com­ munity, are the second kind of buildings in Toronto, and they w ill not be discussed in this paper either. ' Holy Bl ossom on Bond Street (1897), Goel Tzedec (1907) and Beth Jacob (1922), Anshe Ki ev (1927) and Anshei Minsk (1 930) were substantial congrega­ ti ons w hose buildings were constructed o ri ginall y as syna­ gogues, and comprise the co ll ecti on of buildings that l will be examining.

We are delighted to welcome you to the 39th year of Holocaust Education Week. As you flip through this year’s guide, you will see that our programs curated around the theme, The Holocaust and Now, appear to have been “torn from the headlines.” With so much social, cultural and political turmoil occurring globally, we find ourselves discussing the relationship between the Holocaust and what is happening around us today. It is both timely and necessary for HEW to address our current zeitgeist–the rise of global antisemitism, denial, hate crimes, both online and in our own neighbourhoods, a reckoning with difficult aspects of our Canadian past; and conversely, an examination of how the legacy of the Holocaust has inspired positivity, action and change.
