Status:: Adopted

Origin

(November 2, 2011) Letter from Councillor Kristyn Wong-Tam, Ward 27, Toronto Centre-Rosedale

Summary

The building at 81 Wellesley Street East is an architecturally significant structure but is not currently protected by heritage designation. The building is clearly a surviving part of the early neighbourhood development of this area.

In order to preserve the building as an important heritage resource, I am requesting City staff undertake a process to review it for designation under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act.
