Cenotaph on Bayview Avenue, Sunnybrook Veterans Centre Remembrance Day Service 2016
If you’ve seen the construction happening around the Cenotaph in front of Sunnybrook Hospital, a note on the Sunnybrook Veterans Centre website explains what is going on.
Sunnybrook is working with Veterans Affairs Canada, our veteran residents and members of our community to refurbish and restore the Cenotaph on Bayview Avenue. The monument is a fixture the hospital’s identity for passersby on Bayview and it features prominently in our wreath laying ceremony during our Remembrance Day services each year.
Construction will include repointing of the concrete, installation of lighting features, and some general maintenance and clean up. It will not affect this year’s ceremony. We expect to have the project complete in time for Remembrance Day 2023, which will also mark the 75th Anniversary of the first patient admitted to what was then known as Sunnybrook Military Hospital.Sunnybrook Veterans Centre
