The only wood-framed church in Toronto built in 1895, now revived.
This church has always been the heart of the community. When Hurricane Hazel attacked Toronto on October 15, 1954, it served as the rescue centre for the neighbourhood. Unaffected by the hurricane, this small church building remains lovely and charming. It is still a major landmark – loved by many people.
The restorative work for this heritage building commencd in 2012, and was completed in 2014. Various activities are being organized to reflect the historical and cultural value of this building.
