Summary
This report recommends that City Council include the property at 349 George Street on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and state its intention to designate the property under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. The site contains the former Allan School (1910), which is most recently known as the School House Shelter operated by Dixon Hall and located beside the Seaton House men's shelter.
The municipally owned property at 349 George Street is located on the section of the street between Dundas Street East and Gerrard Street East that is the subject of the George Street Revitalization, a City-led project to replace Seaton House with a new men's shelter, a long-term care facility, units for both assisted living and affordable housing, as well as a community service hub.
The inclusion of the property at 349 George Street on the City's Heritage Register and its designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act would identify all of the cultural heritage values and attributes of the property and ensure that they are preserved as part of the plans for the George Street Revitalization.
