This report recommends that City Council include 257 properties with cultural heritage value on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register. These properties were identified through the King-Parliament Secondary Plan Review, and included in the proposed King-Parliament Secondary Plan report to City Council in October 2019.

Staff undertook a Cultural Heritage Resource Assessment (CHRA) of the Secondary Plan Area, and prepared an historic context statement and heritage survey to identify existing and potential heritage properties. This review did not include the area included within the Council-adopted St. Lawrence Neighbourhood Heritage Conservation District (HCD), or the proposed Distillery District HCD.

The King-Parliament area includes some of Toronto’s oldest neighbourhoods and commercial and industrial areas. Within its boundaries are cultural heritage resources, including built heritage, cultural heritage landscapes, and archaeology that reflect the long evolution of the area, from ancient Indigenous habitation through the late-18th century founding of the Town of York, to the present day. The contemporary road network and built form of the area reflects its evolution from a primarily residential and commercial area in the first half of the 19th century, to a commercial and industrial area with pockets of working class housing by the end of the 20th century.

The listing of non-designated properties with cultural heritage value on the Heritage Register will extend interim protection from demolition, should a development or demolition application be submitted. Heritage Impact Assessments (HIA) are required for development applications that affect listed and designated properties. Listing provides an opportunity for City Council to determine whether the property warrants conservation through designation under the Ontario Heritage Act. All of these properties meet Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation, which the City also applies when assessing properties for its Heritage Register.
