Did a heritage home sit on this property. If so, it was most likely built between 1870 and 1890. It is now gone. Some in London would mourn the loss but other will celebrate the missing home and the lot now available for redevelopment.
How to redevelop a heritage area while retaining the heritage feeling is tough. Very tough. It demands a lot of imagination and creativity on the part of the developer. From the look of the few highrises that now dot the area, imagination it seems is in short supply in the Soho neighbourhood. Soho meaning South of Horton with Horton Street being the northern boundary of the heritage neighbourhood.
