SPECIAL AWARD
The Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) has made long lasting and historically accurate restorations to a number of their buildings to prevent their threatened loss due to neglect and their resulting deterioration. These exterior improvements are not only important to the community, the streetscape, and the preservation of the buildings, but to the long term tenants themselves.

This work fulfills the City’s bylaws, where previous work (aluminum siding, etc.) contravened the bylaws. The CPA recognizes TCHC’s stewardship in the neighbourhood. Their presence particularly in the NW quadrant blocked development from continuing down from St Jamestown and the destruction of historical buildings.
