Summary
This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the listed property at 183 Avenue Road (Edward G. Woodley House) under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value.
The subject property at 183 Avenue Road is situated on the east side of the street, between Pears Avenue and Davenport Road. It contains a three storey, late Victorian-era, red brick house-form building constructed in 1901. The building is amongst the earliest surviving house-form buildings constructed together with the adjacent heritage properties at 177-181 Avenue Road on this portion of the east side of Avenue Road at the turn of the 20th-century, and representing the earliest period in the historical evolution of Avenue Road.
Heritage Planning staff have undertaken further research and evaluation and determined that the heritage property at 183 Avenue Road meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, the criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act under all three categories of design, associative and contextual values. As such, the property is a significant built heritage resource.
Designation enables City Council to review proposed alterations for the property, enforce heritage property standards and maintenance, and refuse demolition.
