Summary
This report recommends that City Council include the property at 1 Blue Goose Street on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register.
At its meeting of November 16, 2016, the Etobicoke York Community Council adopted EY118.46, "Request to Include the Blue Goose Tavern at 1 Blue Goose Street on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register."
Located in the Etobicoke community of Mimico, the property at 1 Blue Goose Street contains a hotel that was built in 1909 as the Windsor Hotel, which has been known since the 1970s as the Blue Goose Tavern. Following research and evaluation, it has been determined that the property meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act, which the City also applies when considering properties for inclusion on its Heritage Register.
The property at 1 Blue Goose Street is the subject of a development application that proposes to retain the heritage building while adding residential buildings to the property.
Properties on the Heritage Register will be conserved and maintained in accordance with the Official Plan Heritage Policies. Designation enables City Council to review alterations to the site, enforce heritage property standards and maintenance, and refuse demolition.
