TAKE NOTICE that Council for the City of Toronto intends to designate the property, including the lands, buildings and structures thereon known municipally as 63-65 Huntley Street (including entrance addresses at 1A-1B Selby Street) under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.O.18, as amended, as a property of cultural heritage value or interest.

Reasons for Designation

The properties at 63-65 Huntley Street are worthy of designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for their cultural heritage value, and meet Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation under the criteria of design/physical, historical/associative, and contextual values.

Description

The subject properties at 63-65 Huntley Street are comprised of a pair of semi-detached, Victorian-era, Italianate-influenced, Bay and Gable Style homes. The pair primarily fronts onto Huntley Street with additional side frontage along Selby Street for 65 Huntley Street and its two rear additions (1A-1B Selby Street). The subject properties were built in 1877 by local builder and architect A.H. Rundle (who occupied 63 Huntley Street), and includes two later additions to the rear of 65 Huntley Street. These additions consist of a 1926 apartment addition/conversion overtop the original rear wing of the house (adding a second storey and side entrances), as well as a later, 1949-built, two-storey, detached garage with upper-floor apartment.

Statement of Cultural Heritage Value

Design and Physical Value

The subject properties at 63-65 Huntley Street hold significant design/physical value as a fine, representative pair of semi-detached, Victorian-era, Italianate-influenced, Bay and Gable style homes. The high degree of integrity shared by the pair is demonstrated by the many original details present along the principal (front) elevation. These details include: dichromatic masonry with a yellow-brick base layer accented with decorative red-brick courses and arches around doorways, window openings, roofline, and corner quoining, original wooden doorways/doors and window openings, and wooden soffit and fascia supported by wooden brackets and a common, centre gable with intricate bargeboard detailing.

Historical and Associative Value

The subject property at 63 Huntley Street holds significant historical/associative value as the home of local builder and architect Arkless Harris Rundle (1847-1909) who built this and several other properties within the Upper Jarvis neighbourhood. Rundle built and occupied the property between its construction in 1877 until his departure in 1884-1885. During this time, Arkless and his brother Charles bought up and developed several nearby lots, including a row of three contiguous homes at 7-11 Selby Street. Eventually, after having profited from the development the Upper Jarvis neighbourhood which he called home, A.H. Rundle commissioned a new, much grander home for he and his family at 15 Selby Street - the A.H. Rundle House (1888) by notable Toronto architect E.J. Lennox a testament to the enterprising Rundle brothers' success.

Contextual Value

The subject properties at 63-65 Huntley Street hold significant contextual value as they define, maintain, and support the character of the surrounding streetscape and are physically, functionally, visually, and historically linked to the development of the Upper Jarvis neighbourhood. The high degree of architectural integrity and materiality of the semi-detached home, connects the property contextually to its neighbours along Huntley Street, with its intricate masonry façade, delicate brickwork, and wooden bargeboard detailing forming a physical link to the nearby, contiguous row of Bay and Gable style homes at 47-59 Huntley Street which were all built in the same period.

Heritage Attributes

Design and Physical Value

Attributes that contribute to the value of the properties at 63-65 Huntley Street as a fine example of Toronto's late nineteenth-century, Italianate-influenced, Bay and Gable typology include:

• The symmetrical primary façade (front elevation) with its twin entryways, opposing pair of first-storey bay windows, and central gable
• The dichromatic masonry façade with a yellow-brick base layer accented with decorative red-brick courses and arches around doorways, window openings, roofline, and corner quoining
• The original wooden doorways/doors and window openings, and wooden soffit and fascia supported by wooden brackets and a common, centre gable with intricate bargeboard detailing
• Historical or Associative Value
• Historical connection to original architect and owner A.H. Rundle (1847-1909) who along with his brother Charles bought and developed several nearby plots in the area including 7-11 Selby Street
• A.H Rundle occupied 63 Huntley Street between 1876-1877 and 1884-1886 before moving into two successive new homes designed by E.J. Lennox at 9 Selby Street then 15 Selby Street (1888)

Contextual Value

Attributes that contribute to the contextual value of the properties at 63-65 Huntley Street as defining, supporting, and maintaining the historic character of the area:

• The high degree of architectural integrity and materiality of the semi-detached home, connects the property contextually to its neighbours along Huntley Street
• The intricate masonry façade, delicate brickwork, and wooden bargeboard detailing forming a physical link to the nearby, contiguous row of Bay and Gable style homes at 47-59 Huntley Street which were all built in the same period

N.B. The detached garage addition to the property at 65 Huntley Street known municipally as 1B Selby Street is not considered a heritage attribute.

1 A Selby Street

Reasons for Designation

The property at 1A Selby Street is worthy of designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value, and meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation under the criteria of design/physical and contextual values.

Description

Built overtop what was once a one-storey, light industrial structure attached to the rear of the main house, the 1926-built, Arts and Crafts style apartment conversion and addition is primarily confined to the second storey, albeit with a reconfigured side entrance which helps transition the addition to the original structure along the Selby Street elevation. The 1926-era, second-storey (and side entrance) portion of the apartment addition features stucco cladding with Tudor Revival half-timbering. The largely wooden, double side entrance is protected with a small portico roof with exposed rafter tails, which features two symmetrical pairs of wooden, intricately-composed, bracket-ended supports which frame each of the two identical doorways (one into 1A Selby Street, the other into the rear of 65 Huntley Street). Between these side doors stands an original, fixed, multi-light window pane.

Statement of Cultural Heritage Value

Design and Physical Value

The 1926-built, rear, two-storey apartment addition at the back of 65 Huntley Street holds design/physical value as a rare, unique example (within the area) of an Arts and Crafts-influenced piece of domestic architecture within what is predominantly a late nineteenth-century neighbourhood. Prominent design features include: the second floor apartment addition with stucco and Tudor Revival half-timbering and the ground-floor double side entrance with portico roof (supported by wooden brackets) with exposed rafter tails and a large, original, fixed-pane, multi-light window between the entryways. The ground floor is largely comprised of the original rear wing of the main house, and features many of the same masonry details: yellow-brick and corner quoining.

Contextual Value

An early twentieth-century addition to Upper Jarvis neighbourhood, 1A Selby is representative of the second major phase of development in the area, part of the same period of intensification which includes the 1910-built, three-storey apartment addition to the rear of 47 Huntley Street (2 Linden Street) and the construction of the adjacent, 1919-built, three-storey apartment next door at 8A Linden Street. The rear addition at 1A Selby also holds significant contextual value for its physical and functional connection to its surroundings - namely to 65 Huntley Street to which it is attached. Converted from a former malting house into an apartment, 1A Selby Street is indicative of a neighbourhood in transition.

Heritage Attributes

Design and Physical Value

Attributes that contribute to the value of the property at 1A Selby Street as a fine example of an Arts and Crafts-influenced rear apartment addition include:

• The scale and massing of the second-floor apartment addition/expansion which was created sympathetically atop the former light industrial rear addition to the home
• The high degree of integrity present among the property's extant original materials and architectural details - brick masonry with corner quoining detail (ground floor), stucco and half-timbering (second floor), and Arts and Crafts-influenced double side entrance with multi-light window and intricate portico roof with exposed rafter tails and wooden support brackets

Contextual Value

Attributes that contribute to the contextual value of the property at 1A Selby Street as defining, supporting, and maintaining the historic character of the area:

• The apartment conversion/expansion to the rear of 65 Huntley Street is contextually linked to the second major phase of intensification within the Upper Jarvis neighbourhood as evidenced by the 1910 apartment addition (2 Linden Street) at 47 Huntley Street and the adjacent 1919-built apartment block at 8A Linden Street

Notice of Objection to the Notice of Intention to Designate

Notice of an objection to the Notice of Intention to Designate the Property may be served on the City Clerk, Attention: Administrator, Secretariat, City Clerk's Office, Toronto City Hall, 2nd Floor West, 100 Queen Street West, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 2N2.; Email: hertpb@toronto.ca within thirty days of June 21, 2022, which is July 21, 2022. The notice of objection to the Notice of Intention to Designate the Property must set out the reason(s) for the objection and all relevant facts.

Further information in respect of the Notice of Intention to Designate the Property is available from the City of Toronto at:

http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2022.CC45.5

TAKE NOTICE that Council for the City of Toronto intends to designate the property, including the lands, buildings and structures thereon known municipally as 7-11 Selby Street under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.O.18, as amended, as a property of cultural heritage value or interest.

RUNDLE ROW

Reasons for Designation

The properties at 7-11 Selby Street are worthy of designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for their cultural heritage value, and meet Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation under the criteria of design/physical, historical/associative, and contextual value.

Description

Rundle Row at 7-11 Selby Street is comprised of three, 2-storey, brick residential row houses constructed together in 1880. Situated on the south side of Selby Street, between Huntley Street and Sherbourne Street, the properties at 7-11 Selby Street help to define and support the character of this block within the historic Upper Jarvis neighbourhood. The row dates to the earliest period of development in this area, and contributes to a streetscape largely consisting of late-nineteenth-century house-form buildings including row houses, semi-detached, and detached properties. The buildings’ scale, form, massing, materials, and varied roofline are consistent with and complementary to their surroundings, particularly the Queen Anne Revival styling of the heritage property directly east at 15 Selby Street and the Second Empire features directly west at 1-3 Selby Street. Of the eight late-nineteenth century residential buildings fronting onto the south side of Selby Street, four were designed by the firm of McCaw & Lennox (1876-1881), which included eminent Toronto architect, E.J. Lennox, and owned/built by one of the architecture firm's seemingly favoured contractors, Arkless H. Rundle. These include the heritage property at 15 Selby Street (A.H. Rundle House, 1888) and the subject properties at 7-11 Selby Street identified in this report as Rundle Row (1880). The small scale and compact nature of the row house typology at 7-11 Selby Street represents an interesting example of residential design by Lennox that departs from his more typical, large-scale, single-family detached dwellings.

Statement of Cultural Heritage Value

Design and Physical Value

The properties at 7-11 Selby Street constitute a well-crafted and rare example of a late-nineteenth century residential row designed in the popular Queen Anne Revival style with Second Empire influences. They are particularly distinguished by the combination of a dichromatic slate mansard roofline with dormer windows broken with asymmetrically-arranged gables containing pebbledash infill or wood shingling. Alterations to the principal (north) elevations, including the wooden cladding at 7 and 9 Selby Street, and the east addition to 11 Selby Street with its excavated below-grade garage, adds to the eclectic and evolved design landscape of the street.

Historical and Associative Value

The row of three properties at 7-11 Selby Street are valued for their association with Arkless H. Rundle, a builder and land speculator who owned 7, 9, and 15 Selby Street as well as a number of lots on the north side of Selby Street. A.H. Rundle owned and occupied 9 Selby while his brother, Charles Rundle, a leading contractor in Toronto who worked with architect E. J. Lennox on various architectural projects, owned and occupied the attached property at 11 Selby. The Rundles are reported to have built at least nineteen homes in the Upper Jarvis neighbourhood during the late nineteenth century.

Rundle Row is also valued for its associations with the eminent Toronto architect E. J. Lennox who is attributed with the design along with his business partner at the time, William Frederick McCaw. While Lennox is best known for local landmarks such as Toronto City Hall (Old City Hall) and Casa Loma, he also received numerous commissions for residential buildings in Toronto's upscale neighbourhoods, including the Part IV Designated A. H. Rundle House (1888) located directly east of the subject properties.

Contextual Value

Situated on the south side of Selby Street, between Huntley Street and Sherbourne Street, the row of three attached dwellings at7-11 Selby Street help to define and support the character of this block within the historic Upper Jarvis neighbourhood. The buildings’ scale, form, massing, materials, and gabled roofline are consistent with and complementary to their surroundings, and their integrity as a pair with intact detailing lends them a degree of visual prominence in this context. The properties at 7-11 Selby Street are visually and historically linked to their surroundings. The set dates to the earliest period of development in this area, and contributes to a streetscape largely consisting of late-nineteenth century house-form buildings.

Historical or Associative Value

• Historical connection to original architect and owner A.H. Rundle (1847-1909) who along with his brother Charles bought and developed several nearby plots in the area including 7-11 Selby Street
• A.H Rundle occupied 63 Huntley Street between 1876-1877 and 1884-1886 before moving into two successive new homes designed by E.J. Lennox at 9 Selby Street then 15 Selby Street (1888)

Heritage Attributes

Design and Physical Value

Attributes that contribute to the value of the properties at 7-11 Selby Street as a rare example of a residential row typology combining Queen Anne Revival and Second Empire styling include:

• The properties’ siting and orientation on the south side of Selby Street
• The properties’ scale, form, and massing as a set of three, 2-storey house-form buildings
• The material palette typical of Victorian Era buildings, including primarily red brick with stone and wood detailing, including buff brick detailing at 7 and 11 Selby 
• The varied roofline defined by alternating and asymmetrical mansard roofs, gables and a pyramidal roof at 9 Selby
• Roof dormers on the principal (north) elevation with their wooden millwork and matching roofs
• At 7 and 11 Selby, the triangular arch window opening in splayed brick face with dichromatic brick above
• Box gable on the principal (north) elevation of all three properties with wood brackets and bargeboard; decorative half-timbering with masonry chip nogging on the north elevation and east return at 11 Selby
• At 11 Selby, the projecting wood-framed vestibule with millwork detail, main entrance with decorative transom and a flat roof

Contextual Value

The following heritage attributes contribute to the cultural heritage value of the properties at 7-11 Selby Street as character-defining structures within a historic residential streetscape:

• The properties’ siting and orientation on the south side of Selby Street
• The properties’ scale, form, and massing as a set of three, 2-storey house-form buildings
• The material palette typical of Victorian Era buildings, including primarily red brick with stone and wood detailing, including buff brick detailing at 7 and 11 Selby 
• The varied roofline defined by alternating and asymmetrical mansard roofs, box gables and a pyramidal roof at 9 Selby

TAKE NOTICE that Council for the City of Toronto intends to designate the property, including the lands, buildings and structures thereon known municipally as 16-18 Linden Street under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.O.18, as amended, as a property of cultural heritage value or interest.

Reasons for Designation

The properties at 16-18 Linden Street are worthy of designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for their cultural heritage value, and meet Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation, under the categories of design/physical and contextual value.

Description

The properties at 16-18 Linden Street, dating to 1876, comprise a semi-detached pair of two-and-a-half-storey house-form buildings on the north side of Linden Street, between Huntley Street and Sherbourne Street. The pair represents the Bay and Gable typology and retains many intact features of Victorian architectural design. The buildings share a cross-gabled roof with two front gables; they are configured with a gable and a one-storey bay window on the west side of each half, and an entrance on each portion’s east side. The front gables include decorative wood bargeboards with pierced details. On their primarily red-brick exteriors, the buildings demonstrate dichromatic brickwork, including a four-course buff-brick band above the stone foundation, single-course buff-brick banding at the upper storeys, and buff brick highlights above each window. Although the windows have been replaced, the buildings appear to retain their original fenestration patterns and segmentally arched openings. The raised entries constitute the primary distinction between the two buildings. At 16 Linden Street (the western half), the front door is slightly recessed within a wood portico, including four columns, a spindlework frieze, and fluted brackets. At 18 Linden Street (the eastern half), the front door is flush within an entryway that is entirely enclosed by brick, with a segmental arch and dichromatic brick details above a transom. Seeming to reflect a change in grade, another difference lies in the larger raised basement window visible within the projecting bay at 16 Linden Street. The properties have largely maintained their integrity as a pair.

Statement of Cultural Heritage Value

Constructed in 1876, the properties at 16 and 18 Linden Street constitute representative examples of semi-detached Bay and Gable residences. The properties have maintained a high degree of integrity as a pair and retain many intact features that are typical of Victorian architectural design. Their composition features the quintessential combination of a front gable over a projecting bay of windows on each half of the pair. With red-brick exteriors featuring buff-brick trim, the properties demonstrate dichromatic brickwork, which grew popular as a design feature in Ontario during the 1870s and 1880s. Additional details of note include segmentally arched openings, decorative wood bargeboards with pierced details in the front gables, and, at 16 Linden Street, a wood portico with four columns, a spindlework frieze, and fluted brackets.

Situated on the north side of Linden Street, between Huntley Street and Sherbourne Street, the properties at 16-18 Linden Street help to define and support the character of this block within the historic Upper Jarvis neighbourhood. The buildings’ scale, form, massing, materials, and gabled roofline are consistent with and complementary to their surroundings, and their integrity as a pair with intact detailing lends them a degree of visual prominence in this context. The properties at 16-18 Linden Street are visually and historically linked to their surroundings. The pair dates to the earliest period of development in this area, and contributes to a streetscape largely consisting of late-nineteenth century house-form buildings.
