  • Rosedale Archival Records Prepared by OAC / TAC Volunteers Annotated Box Listing Prepared by Sally Gibson October 2013
    1 Rosedale Archival Records prepared by OAC / TAC Volunteers Annotated Box Listing prepared by Sally Gibson October 2013 Editorial Note: Records were created between about 1976 and 2004.Volunteers originally envisioned publishing six books, containing a total of 24 walks that covered both South and North Rosedale. This goal shaped how the records were organized. However, there are no key maps or descriptions of the walks. Moreover, the walk numbers changed over time, which complicates understanding the records. The box numbers are arbitrary, being assigned to facilitate description and retrieval. Titles in boldface tend to be titles found on the files or other containers. Some entries are annotated with additional information or questions raised. TAC Volunteers adopted a broad approach to their subject. They researched not only individual houses, but also the entire development process, from crown grants, through subdivision plans (highlighted), to construction and subsequent redevelopment. They also researched pioneer life, city services, bridges, schools, churches, parks, recreation grounds, horticulture and transportation, as well as prominent developers, architects and home-owners. BOX 1 Builders Information - 7 card files: builders, architects, walks Card File - Architects - Ontario - not York County: reference cards (e.g., sources) at front; architects cards & papers filed alphabetically; not only architects active in Rosedale; seems to exclude Toronto buildings & activities Card File - Builders: seems to include people responsible

  • Pedestrianizing Market Street and Leader Lane
    May 19, 2021 Toronto and East York Community Council City Hall, Committee Room 1 100 Queen Street West Toronto ON M5H 2N2 Dear Chair and Council Members, RE: Pedestrianizing Market Street and Leader Lane Figuring out how to better use our physical infrastructure is increasingly important as we look to create healthier, safer and more active communities. The St. Lawrence Market Neighbourhood Business Improvement Area (BIA) has been reviewing streets within its catchment and have identified two streets within, Market Street and Leader Lane, as having the potential to be transformed into pedestrian-only streets that support these goals. Market Street, between Front Street East and The Esplanade, was designed as a flexible, curbless street in 2013. Adjacent to the historic St. Lawrence Market, Market Street currently accommodates one-way southbound traffic, with parking on both sides. During the summer and fall, parking on the west side of the road is turned into space for restaurant patios. Its design was chosen in part to allow Market Street to easily be closed to vehicular traffic, with the long-term intention to see the street closed to vehicles. Aside from being a draw for pedestrians, this closure could help assist Market Street restaurants and St. Lawrence Market Street vendors who have struggled during this pandemic. Leader Lane, between Colborne Street and Wellington Street East, is a city laneway that accommodates one-way southbound traffic. The BIA and community desires to see the laneway closed to create a safer, more attractive connection to Berczy Park, and have partnered with the Laneway Project with plans to “winterize it” this year.
