Sides drawn up on Lawrence Park heritage bids

Reporter Lisa Queen has written in the Star’s online publication Inside.Toronto about how the concerns of heritage advocates is at odds with that of homeowners. She recounts the contents of a letter from Geoff Kettel, chairperson of the North York Preservation Panel, lamenting the failure of the City to seek heritage designation for homes at 19 St. Leonard’s Ave., 102 Wanless Ave. and 105 Golfdale Rd. in Lawrence Park. The article includes the view of one  owner that attempts to designate his home constituted an “insignificant nomination.” The sides seem to be well drawn up on the issue and for those with a concern  either for the preservation of such homes or about their property rights and the value of their homes, this article is a good read.  Lisa Queen article    Previous post (140 Dinnick file)
