  • 771 Yonge Street
    REPORT FOR ACTION Alterations to a Designated Heritage Property, Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act and Authority to Enter into a Heritage Easement Agreement - 771 Yonge Street Date: December 1, 2017 To: Toronto Preservation Board Toronto and East York Community Council From: Acting Chief Planner and Executive Director Wards: Ward 27 – Toronto Centre-Rosedale SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council approve the proposed alterations for the heritage property at 771 Yonge Street, in connection with the proposed redevelopment of the site and per the settlement offer submitted to the City by Sherman Brown on July 26, 2017, in conjunction with an appeal to the OMB of the application for Zoning By-law Amendment. This report also recommends that City Council state its intention to designate 771 Yonge Street under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act and give authority to enter into a Heritage Easement Agreement for this property. As part of the project scope, the existing property at 771 Yonge Street will be conserved and incorporated into the redevelopment. The tower will be stepped back 10 metres from the Yonge Street property line with a strategy that does not impact the building's three dimensional form through retention of existing wall fabric at all elevations, in-kind reconstruction of the non-heritage roof and restoration of the street facing facades. New retail uses are proposed within the heritage structure with a new floor slab proposed to be reconstructed between the first and second floor levels. Should the alterations to the subject property be approved, staff recommend that the property owner be required to enter into a Heritage Easement Agreement to ensure the long-term protection of the heritage property.
