75 Dublin Street North Cultural Heritage Resource Impact Assessment 1

1.0 BACKGROUND - CULTURAL HERITAGE RESOURCE IMPACT ASSESSMENT (CHRIA)

This CHRIA has been prepared in response to a request from the City of Guelph’s heritage planner regarding an

application for a proposed development of the vacant lot (former tennis courts) at 75 Dublin Street North in

Guelph. The property is not listed on the City’s Heritage Register; nor is it designated under Part IV of the Ontario

Heritage Act.

2.0 CULTURAL HERITAGE RESOURCE IMPACT ASSESSMENT

2.1 Proponent contact information

Rykur Holdings Inc., 24 Crestwood Place, Guelph, ON N1E 4M3

Tom Lammer [email protected]

Acting upon instructions, we attended 75 Dublin Street North on October 15, 2016 to view the site, take a

photographic record of existing conditions, and prepare a report. In response to our contact with the City’s

Heritage Planner, Stephen Robinson, he noted that “although there has been plenty of research as to the cultural

heritage value of the "Catholic Hill" side of Cork Street W, there is very little research to date on the historical

evolution of the subject property and its connections to the Basilica, St. Agnes School or Central School.”.1 “.....

how the proposal would impact the views of the Basilica and also what impact this infill would have on the

Catholic Hill as a potential cultural heritage landscape is of primary interest to the City”.2

The City of Guelph Cultural Heritage Resource Impact Assessment Guidelines are employed in the conduct of the

CHRIA for this property.3

2.2 Site History and Environs

The subject site, 75 Dublin Street North, is located adjacent to the Basilica of Our Lady Immaculate and its

associated historic structures, and across the street from the former Church of Our Lady parking lot. St. Agnes

School (also across the street) is slightly east of the property (Figure 1). The area is known as “Catholic Hill”.

Also adjacent on the north is Central School, a modern replacement of the former historic stone school building

that once graced that site. Figure 2 shows Catholic Hill and adjacent structures.

Figure 2 Context - GRCA mapping

The subject property is comprised of two lots, formerly in the Town of Guelph; Lot 1051 and Part of Lot 1052

in Plan 8 of the Canada Company Surveys (Figure 3). Originally purchased from The Crown by The Canada

Company in July 1829, the lots were sold in 1845 to Adam J. Ferguson. Ferguson emigrated with his parents from

Perthshire Scotland in 1833. He was called to the bar of Upper Canada in 1839. He practised law in Fergus until

1842 when he was appointed first Judge of the area (District of Wellington) and returned to private practice in

1848 and to politics, being Member of the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada until 1860. He was one of the

first senators at Confederation. Ferguson, like many other prominent, early Guelphites did not develop the

property, nor occupy it, but held it as an investment until he sold Lots 1051 and 1052 (along with others) in 1862

to John Harris the younger. On the Lots sold to the Common School, own of Guelph (1046 & 1047), Guelph

Central School was built in 1877. It was demolished in 1968, to be replaced by the current building (Figures 10 -

13). Harris flipped the subject property to Parish Priest, The Reverend John Holzer the same year (1862). Rev.

Holzer was a petitioner to the Upper Canada Legislation, along with The Reverend Hector Glackmeyer of New

York City and others, for the creation of the College of St. Ignatius (founded June 1862) and an instigator in 1856

for the construction of the Loretto Academy (now the Civic Museum). In 1864, Rev. Holzer obtained a $4,000

mortgage from the Upper Canada Trust & Loan Co. on the property. The mortgage was discharged in 1870 and

the property transferred to The Reverend Hector Glackmeyer in 1871. Rev. Glackmeyer sold the lots to the

Roman Catholic Episcopal Corporation of Hamilton (owners of Catholic Hill) in 1875. The property was in the

Church’s ownership for 138 years before being sold to the current owner, Rykur Holdings Inc..

The property has remained without structures for many years, although there a frame dwelling on it for a time.

The 1872 bird’s-eye of Guelph shows the lands vacant (Figure 4). A 1919 aerial photograph shows a small frame

house and large garden on the property which was owned by the Church at that time (Figures 5 & 6).

Circa the 1930s, the frame house was no longer extant (Figure 8). Sometime before 1946, the house on the subject

property was demolished and replaced with tennis courts (Figure 9). Circa 1946, a portion of Lot 1052 was

severed for the Guelph Credit Union (current home of a dentist’s office). Figure 8 shows the approximate line of

severance.

The tennis courts remained in use on the property until the 2000s when they were closed.

2.3 Documentation of the heritage resource(s) - description of existing structures

There is no cultural heritage resource associated with the subject property. The cultural heritage resources are

some of the neighbouring residences and the cultural heritage landscape that is Catholic Hill.

3.0 DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL and IDENTIFICATION of POTENTIAL IMPACTS

3.1 The development proposal

The development proposal is illustrated in the Concept Plan (Figure 16). Twenty-four underground parking spaces

are provided with access provided from Cork Street West. A 3 metre buffer strip is located between the proposed

building and Central Public School and the abutting dental office. The first three building storeys are consistent

with the 3 metre underground parking setback. The fourth floor is set back 6 metres from Dublin Street North and

Cork Street West. The fifth floor is set back 9 metres from Dublin Street North and Cork Street West.4

3.2 Heritage conservation policies

The following policies and analysis are pertinent to this proposal.

Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) 2014

Cultural Heritage

2.6.3 Planning authorities shall not permit development and site alteration on adjacent lands to protected

heritage property except where the proposed development and site alteration has been evaluated and it has been

demonstrated that the heritage attributes of the protected heritage property will be conserved.

Cultural heritage landscape: means a defined geographical area that may have been modified by human

activity and is identified as having cultural heritage value or interest by a community, including an Aboriginal

community. The area may involve features such as structures, spaces, archaeological sites or natural elements

that are valued together for their interrelationship, meaning or association. Examples may include, but are not

limited to, heritage conservation districts designated under the Ontario Heritage Act; villages, parks, gardens,

battlefields, mainstreets and neighbourhoods, cemeteries, trailways, viewsheds, natural areas and industrial

complexes of heritage significance; and areas recognized by federal or international designation authorities (e.g.

a National Historic Site or District designation, or a UNESCO World Heritage Site).

The proposed development is evaluated in this CHRIA, demonstrating that the heritage attributes of the protected

heritage property are conserved. Although Catholic Hill is a significant heritage resource, it is not protected by

legislation except as being included on the City’s Heritage Register as a non-designated property.

City of Guelph Official Plan (September 2014 Consolidation)

3.5 Cultural Heritage Resources

General Policies

3.5.2 This Plan promotes the design of development proposals in a manner, which preserves and enhances the

context in which cultural heritage resources are situated.

The proposed development preserves and enhances the context in which Catholic Hill and the non-designated

cultural heritage resources on Dublin Street North are situated in its heritage-inspired design and materials and by

framing the view of Cork Street towards the downtown and anchoring the corner of Dublin and Cork Streets.

11.1.7 LAND USE AND BUILT FORM

Objectives In addition to supporting the Principles, Objectives and Targets in Section 11.1.2, the intent of the

policies below is to:

g) Ensure new development respects the character of downtown’s historic fabric and the quality of life in

surrounding neighbourhoods.

See above.

Official Plan Amendment No. 48

4.8.4 Development and Site Alteration Adjacent to Protected Heritage Property

1. Development and site alteration may be permitted on adjacent lands to protected heritage property where the

proposed development and site alteration has been evaluated and it has been demonstrated, to the satisfaction of

the City, in consultation with Heritage Guelph, that the heritage attributes of the protected heritage property will

CHC Limited October 19, 2016

Page 18: Cultural Heritage Resource Impact Assessment 75 Dublin ...guelph.ca/wp-content/uploads/75Dublin_Cultural... · 75 Dublin Street North Cultural Heritage Resource Impact Assessment

75 Dublin Street North Cultural Heritage Resource Impact Assessment 16

be conserved. Mitigation or avoidance measures may be required to conserve the heritage attributes of the

protected heritage property affected by the adjacent development or site alteration.

Although there are heritage properties adjacent, none is protected except by being included on the City’s Heritage

Register as non-designated properties. There is no adverse impact to any of these properties.

2. Development or site alteration on adjacent lands to a protected heritage property shall require a Scoped

Cultural Heritage Resource Impact Assessment to evaluate and demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the City in

consultation with Heritage Guelph, that the heritage attributes of the designated heritage property will be

conserved.

This CHRIA has been prepared to satisfy the policy.

3. Development and site alteration on adjacent lands to protected heritage property shall be designed to avoid

or mitigate impact on the identified heritage attributes of the protected heritage property, and should be designed

to be compatible with the immediate context on the street.

Compatibility is ensured through heritage-inspired design and materials, framing the view of Cork Street towards

the downtown, and anchoring the corner of Dublin and Cork Streets.

International Charter for the Conservation and Restoration of Monuments and Sites (The Venice Charter 1964)

Article 6.

The conservation of a monument implies preserving a setting which is not out of scale. Wherever the traditional

setting exists, it must be kept. No new construction, demolition or modification which would alter the relations

of mass and colour must be allowed.

Article 6 has been satisfied. There are no adverse impacts on the Catholic Hill monument. The traditional setting

remains intact. The adjacent proposed building is not on the monument site; nonetheless, materials and colours

have been selected to be harmonious and complementary.

3.3 Identification of potential impacts on the cultural heritage resource(s)

The objective of this CHRIA is to determine the potential impact to the adjacent cultural heritage resource

(Catholic Hill). Adverse impacts per the Ontario Heritage Toolkit include:

• destruction of any, or part of any, significant heritage attributes (not applicable);

• alteration that is not sympathetic, or is incompatible, with the historic fabric and appearance of the heritage

resource (not applicable)

• a change in land use that affects the property's heritage value (not applicable)

• land disturbances such as a change in grade that alters soils, and drainage patterns that adversely affect a

heritage resource (not applicable)

• isolation of a heritage attribute from its surrounding environment, context or a significant relationship (not

applicable)

• shadows created that alter the appearance of a heritage attribute or change the viability of a natural feature

or plantings, such as a garden

A shadow study prepared by James Fryett Architect Inc. indicates that the proposed building will cast a

shadow on the vacant St. Agnes School from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM, EST and on a portion of St. Agnes School,

the Civic Museum, and the Basilica from 7:00 to 7:30 on June 21st. At 6:00 PM, EST on March 21st, the

proposed building casts a shadow on a portion of St. Agnes School and the Civic Museum. Although

shadowing from St. Agnes School was not modelled, it is apparent that the former school building casts similar

shadows on the Civic Museum and Basilica. No other cultural heritage resources are affected at any time

during the year and shadowing is limited to the times and periods noted. This does not constitute an adverse

impact on the heritage resources.

• direct or indirect obstruction of significant views or vistas within, from, or of built and natural features

With respect to potential impacts, the City was interested to know “how the proposal would impact the views

of the Basilica and also what impact this infill would have on the Catholic Hill as a potential cultural heritage

landscape”. Aerial oblique photos with views from the south, north, and east (Figures 19 - 21) show the

proposed building in the context of the downtown.

There are iconic long views of Catholic Hill and more immediate closer-range views. Long views are from

Eramosa Road and Delhi Street (Figure 22), from Yarmouth Street (Figure 23), from McDonnell Street (Figure

24), and from Wellington County Road 24 west of Guelph and Gordon Street (not shown). The proposed building

does not appear in any of these views and has no impact on the Catholic Hill cultural heritage landscape/resources.

Figure 28 shows how the proposed building “bookends”, with the St. Agnes School building, the corner of Cork

and Dublin with the new high rise building in the distance as a focal point.

Figure 29 shows a filtered view of the towers of the Basilica through trees, fences and utility structures that will

no longer be visible with the proposed building in place.

The heritage conservation policies outline on page 15 of this report have been adhered to.

A meeting was held with Heritage Guelph Include on October 11, 2016 to review the preliminary building

elevations. The Committee provided the following comments to be considered in the Cultural Heritage Resource

Impact Assessment:

• Add the proposed building to the view from the bottom of Cork Street. How many floors are visible? Should

there be stone on the facade facing the downtown?

Figure 26 of this report is a view from the bottom of Cork Street. Because of the hill, the trees and the utility

poles and lines, it is difficult to see much of the building. The 3rd and 4th floors are partially visible. Stone

facing is found on the first 3 floors of the Cork Street and Dublin Street facades. It is worth noting that one

day a new building will be situated on the adjacent dentist office site (Part Lot 1052) that will further screen

the three top floors.

• Provide a cross section through St. Agnes School tower, Cork Street and the proposed building to show the

relative height difference and how the new building will look framing/bracketing the top of Cork Street.

St. Agnes School is not across from the proposed building; thus, a cross-section, unless warped, would not

show the relationship. Figure 28 shows the view from Cork and Dublin, which illustrates how the new

building and St. Agnes “bookend” the street with the distant high-rise as a focal point.

• Provide the materials to be used. Prefer flat finished materials vs. those with reflectivity.

Stone facing is to be used on the first 3 floors of the Cork Street and Dublin Street facades. The stepped-back

top two floors are clad in a modern material with texture and colour to be confirmed through the Site Plan

process. The design principle is to have a heritage corner created at the Dublin/Cork corner, with a modern

addition on the upper floors, similar to the principles in which the modern glass structure is mated to the Civic

Museum building (historic Loretto Academy) across the street.

• Was a Mansard roofline considered? Show the mechanical penthouse.

A Mansard roof was considered, but not chosen, as the terracing approach proved more desirable in achieving

a lighter massing on the upper levels, effectively lowering the building height. The stepped-back floors also

lighten and visually reduce the height of the building.

• What is the shadow impact to Catholic Hill from the proposed building?

There is none to minimal shadow impact to Catholic Hill. Shadow from the proposed building covers much

the same area as that of St. Agnes School shadow on the Basilica. See page 16.

4.0 RECOMMENDATION / CONCLUSION

The conclusion of this CHRIA is that the proposed development poses no negative impacts to the cultural heritage

resources of the area or to views of or from the cultural heritage resources of the area.

Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception is an exceptional example of the High Victorian Gothic Revival style,

an architectural movement that was international in scope. The design of this church was inspired by the medieval

cathedrals of France. Characteristic of the style are the twin towers, large rose window, pointed windows and an

interior plan featuring chapels that radiate from the apse. Constructed in several stages beginning in 1876, the

church was designed by Irish-born Joseph Connolly, the principal architect for the Roman Catholic Church in

late-19th century Ontario.

Appendix 2Designation - Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception National Historic Site of Canada

Description of Historic Place

Inspired by the medieval cathedrals of France, the twin towers of this large stone church rise above the city centre

in Guelph, Ontario. Constructed as the centrepiece of a complex of Roman Catholic religious and educational

buildings, the church is prominently situated on the brow of a hill. It features elements inspired by the French

Gothic Revival, including, a twin-towered facade, a large rose window and a polygonal apse with radiating

chapels. The formal recognition consists of the church building on its footprint.

Heritage Value

Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception was designated a National Historic Site in 1990 because: it is an

exceptional example of the High Victorian Gothic Revival style in Canadian architecture.

Unlike the earlier, Ecclesiological phase of Gothic Revival, during which architects were restricted to certain

correct precedents, the High Victorian Gothic Revival gave architects freedom to draw inspiration from a wide

variety of periods and countries, while still following certain established principles as to composition and structure.

Like many churches designed by English-speaking architects in the late19th century, the design of Our Lady of

Immaculate Conception shows the strong influence of the French Gothic Revival. Designed by Joseph Connolly,

the principal architect for the Roman Catholic church in Ontario, Our Lady of Immaculate Conception incorporates

French Gothic Revival features, such as a twin-towered façade, rose windows and a polygonal apse with radiating

chapels. Built in 1876-1888 with towers completed in 1925-1926, the church is considered to be Connolly’s best

work.

Character-Defining Elements

Key elements contributing to the heritage value of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception include: its High

Victorian Gothic Revival style, evident in its plan, composition, façade, and architectural details inspired by the

French Gothic Revival, including a cruciform plan with side aisles, prominent nave, triforium arcades, apse with

radiating chapels and ambulatory, twin-towered façade, spire at the central groin vault, and large rose windows;

the sense of verticality, created by the use of steeply pitched roofs with gables, dormers, pinnacles, pointed arches,

and tall narrow window openings; the symmetrically organized façade with its twin square towers with pinnacles

and paired openings, massive rose window with bar tracery set in a moulded pointed arch, row of lintel statuary

set within a blind arcade, and carved tympanum; the division of side elevations into bays defined by engaged

buttresses, with each bay accented by a pointed arch and a stained glass window; the north and south transepts,

each distinguished by two lancet windows below a large, stained-glass, rose window with flanking narrow

pinnacles; the polygonal apse, comprised of radiating gabled chapels with another level of gables above; the

extensive use of pointed arches and stained glass windows with bar tracery throughout the composition; the Gothic

Revival styling of the interior, including, tall pointed-arch windows in the chancel, clerestories inset with rose

windows, stained-glass windows, nave-arcades with false triforium-galleries, granite columns with acanthus

capitals supporting the aisle arcades, and rib vaulting; the high quality design and craftsmanship of its interior,

including its wood and stone carving, its stained glass, its stencilling, its ironwork, its mosaics, and its excellent

acoustics; its prominent siting at the top of a hill overlooking the city; viewscapes to and from the church and the

city.
