CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener 1.0 BACKGROUND - REQUIREMENT for a HERITAGE IMPACT ASSESSMENT Heritage Planning staff provided comments in relation to aproposed addition to the existing long term care facility and new retirement home building at 369 Frederick Street which were discussed at a Pre -Submission Consultation meeting on January 19, 2017 and determined that a Heritage Impact Assessment is required. The property at 369 Frederick Street is of cultural heritage interest, having been placed on the Heritage Kitchener Inventory of Historic Buildings. Information in the City's file shows this 1993 modern building, designed by Montgomery Sisam Architects, was featured in Images of Progress: Modern Architecture in Waterloo Region 1946-1996.' The listing states, "The Salvation Army has been a consistent patron of modern architecture. Here the `crisp stucco and glass exterior pays homage to the modern architectural expression of many Salvation Army projects built in Canada since the 1950s'. The plan is irregular, to preserve the existing mature trees, but also in the modern tradition of bending the plan to suit spatial and functional needs. The residential wing is set furthest from Frederick Street. In front, a suite of public rooms look toward the entry court through glass walls. A free- standing entrance canopy in concrete, steel and timber provides a sheltered verandah at the entry." The subject property is also located adjacent to a protected heritage property - 362 Frederick Street is designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. Further consultation with heritage staff scoped the HIA requirements to exclude the need for a Land Registry search and the need to address the adjacent protected heritage property.2 Figure 1 subject property location (yellow rectangle) - GRCA mapping (2015) ' Images ofProgress: Modern Architecture in Waterloo Region 1946-1996.

The House of Industry and Refuge was built based on the requirements of the 1867 Municipal Act which stated that all municipalities were to provide support for residents requiring assistance. In 1867, the County purchased a 141 -acre farm from John Eby for $9,024 ($64 per acre ), then advertised for a contractor to plan and construct the House from plans by Joseph Hobson, County Engineer. The contract was awarded to Lewis Kribs in 1868 for $8,908 when construction began. All of the work and resources to build the main building was done by members of the local community, many of whom were from or family members of the County Council.3 The House was in operation from 1869 when poor homeless children and unwed mothers were first admitted June 15, 1869. The original building housed 100.4 Figure 3 County Poor House, Berlin, Canadian Illustrated News, 23 March 1872. 3 historical case study of the Waterloo County House of Industry and Refuge (1869-1950), Social Innovation Research Group, Wilfrid Laurier University, http://waterloohouseofrefizge.ca/house/ 4 Region of Waterloo Archives CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener Figure 4 House of Refuge and Industry, undated, c. 1890 -, htto://waterloohotiseofrefu2e.ca/hotise/ Figure 5 House of Refuge, Berlin, 1908 postcard - Kitchener Public Library CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment 5 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener Figure 6 House of Refuge, Kitchener - undated postcard (after 1916) - htto://waterloohotiseofrefiz�ye.ca/house/ The institution was originally intended to be self sufficient by means of operating a farm. Residents were expected to contribute to farm and household tasks. The sale of farm goods was intended to cover the costs of the institution.' The practicality of a self-sufficient farm in the growing town of Berlin/Kitchener became increasingly problematic. Three other farms were purchased to replace the lost farmland from the Frederick Street location, including the Shuh and Weber farms. The Frederick Street facility looked after the chronically ill, while the destitute worked and lived on the farms.6 Farming continued at the House until 1956. The House began a transition in 1919 from "poor house" to an "old aged home" by 1947. In 1947 the Ontario Home for the AgedAct mandated services for seniors. The home's name was changed to "Waterloo County Home for the Aged".' The term "Industry" had been dropped from the title of the House at the beginning of the 20th century.

The plaza was enclosed circa 1980.

Known as Eby House, it was built in 1837. It is the oldest residential house in Berlin/Kitchener occupied by a single family. Built for John and Rebecca Eby, the farm house was occupied by them shortly after their marriage. Rebecca was the daughter of Samuel Bricker who was famous for getting a loan from friends and relatives in Pennsylvania to pay the mortgage on the Beasley Tract, which is now the lands occupied by Waterloo. He sold all of the farmland in 1869 when the House of Industry and Refuge was built across the street. John's daughter Magedeline became owner in 1887 and moved from Harriston with her husband Martin Dunham. Dr. Mabel Dunham was their daughter, the first professionally trained librarian in Ontario. One of Canada's most noted authors, B. Mabel Dunham, was always conscious of the value of history and enriched Canadian literature with her books: The Trail of the Conestoga; Toward Sodom; The Trail of the King's Men; Grand River and Kristh's Trees. Dunham was librarian of the Kitchener Public Library from 1908 until her retirement in 1944, the first trained librarian to be in charge of a public library in Ontario. She developed one of the first children's library departments in Ontario at the Kitchener Library."

For a modern building to be considered of heritage significance, it must satisfy several of the following conditions.13 Philosophy Does the project represent the philosophy of the modern movement? Design Does the design of the project reflect the most salient characteristics of the Modern aesthetic? Materials Is the material palette treated in a distinctively modern way? Construction Is the structure of the project particularly innovative or representative of Modern technology of construction? Alterations Does the project retain its most salient design features, or have alterations been sensitive to the original intentions of the design? Architect Was the project designed by an important and influential architect who made a significant contribution to the Modern Movement? Historic Significance Has the project contributed to the historical development of Kitchener? Influence Has the project influenced the development of architecture locally, nationally, or internationally? Awards Has the project received recognition through publication or awards? Context Does the project contribute to community identity? Application of Criteria Philosophically, the building provides an aesthetic that enhances the arts, architecture, and lifestyles of the machine age; it provides modern space filled with light and fresh air to promote health and vitality. From a design perspective, the building has pure, simple geometries, clean lines. It appears fresh and immaculate (even 24 years after its construction). Its interior volumes have a sense of visual weightlessness through suspension on pilotis and the use of extensive glazing. It sports flat roofs, unadorned finishes, and elegantly machined details. It is devoid of decoration. The interior and exterior of the administration wing become ambiguous with the opening up of the ground plan and the extensive use of glazing. The emphasis is on volume rather than mass and symmetry has been avoided, relieving static composition. The form of the building somewhat reflects and reveals its function. Materials used are synthetic, including acrylics, aluminum, concrete, glass, and steel. The building's structure expresses the elements that are structurally necessary with exterior walls being merely a skin to clad the envelope of the building rather than being load bearing. 13 North York's ModernistArchitecture, Areprintof the 1997 CityofNorth York publication, PresentedbyE.R.A.

Founded in 1978, Montgomery Sisam Architects Inc. is a mid-sized architectural firm based in Toronto with a specialty in healthcare, education and sustainable design. Their numerous awards include a number of senior and long-term care homes. The body of work produced by the firm over nearly four decades is a comprehensive cross- section of Modern design. Historically, the building is the latest in a series of structures on this property specifically designed and built for the care of people in the City, starting with the 1869 House of Industry and Refuge. It is a symbol of a continuum of a pattern of cultural, social, political and economic status of the community, contributing to the identity of the municipality and its landscape. Its association with the major donor, A. R. Goudie14, and the Salvation Army is important to the City's history. The building has received recognition through the publication of Images of Progress: Modern Architecture in Waterloo Region 1946-1996. The property's architectural features, massing, landscaping, and siting enhances the character of the surrounding neighbourhood. Heritage Attributes The cultural heritage attributes of the property are: • the scale and irregular massing of the one and three-storey building, including the entry canopy; • the entry canopy in its entirety; • the acrylic stucco non -load bearing walls; • the glazed and solid panel curtain wall sections; • the pre -finished metal shed roofs of the administration wing and entry canopy; • the clerestory form and glazing in the administration wing, filling the space with light and marrying the indoors with the outdoors; • its prominent set -back from Frederick Street. 1.5 Proposed development and impacts The subject lands are approximately 1.70 hectares (4.21 acres) in area with approximately 98 metres of frontage along Frederick Street to the north. The proposal is to sever part of the Frederick Street frontage from the area of the existing facility to facilitate the construction of a retirement home on the severed portion. Access to the A. R. Goudie Eventide Home and its proposed addition will be from Frederick on the new P -shaped lot. 14 ARTHUR RUSSEL GOUDIE, 1884-1960 was founder of one of western Ontario's largest family-owned department stores, Goudies, Ltd. He was among the firstin Canada to encourage employees to be shareholders. A charter member ofthe Ontario Pioneer Community Foundation, he donated the Dry Goods and Grocery Store to Doon Pioneer Village. A native ofHespeler, he began his career as an apprentice to the Forbes woollen mills. He later travelled for the Ontario Button Company. In 1909, he became manager and vice-president of Weseloh-Goudies, Ltd. When the store was destroyed by fire in 1918, Mr. Goudie rebuilt it as Goudies, Ltd. He served as Ontario and national president of the Ontario Retail Merchants Association. An active supporter ofmany community organizations, Goudie'sgenerosity made possible the building oftheA. R.

The canopied entrance, shortened on either end to accommodate the new drive and addition (Figure 57), remains the visual and main entry to the long-term care home. Materials are red brick, harmonizing with the red sheet metal flashing and roofs of the existing building, with a grey -brown cultured stone base to the main floor windowsill. The building outline follows the contoured shape ofthe existing building and the topography of the site. The large glazed and solid curtain wall on the north side of the building will be removed to facilitate the addition to the building and the curtain wall stair tower is modified by moving the wall slightly northward to accommodate a new elevator (Figure 5 8). The northerly portion of the curtain wall remains visible. (Figure 46) as does the administration wing dazed and solid curtain wall. Figure 57 existing canopy modified - Robert Dyck Architect Figure 58 stair tower curtain wall modification - Robert Dyck Architect CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment 42 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener The new building, a retirement home, is located on the site of the 1962 retirement home (Figures 14 & 45) with its main entrance on the same axis as the 1869 and 1962 buildings. The proposed building is almost a mirror image in form and in the same location as the 1962 building. The new building is also in red brick with a cultured stone base. This building will effectively screen the existing building and its proposed addition from Frederick Street. Visitors to the long-term care home will pass by the new retirement home to the original entrance to the 1993 building. The following assessment of potential impact the proposed redevelopment or site alteration may have on the cultural heritage resource(s) is based on the possible negative impacts as stated in the Ontario Heritage Tool Kit. Potential Negative Impact Assessment Destruction of any, or part of any, significant heritage the larger glazed and solid panel curtain wall attributes or features section and approximately 1/3 of the entry canopy are removed, and the glazed and solid stair tower curtain wall is modified Alteration that is not sympathetic, or is incompatible, the alteration to the existing building is an with the historic fabric and appearance addition that is different from the historic fabric, and compatible with it Shadows created that alter the appearance of a heritage shadows created do not alter the appearance of attribute or change the viability of an associated natural heritage attributes, nor change the viability of feature or plantings, such as a garden plantings Isolation of a heritage attribute from its surrounding the heritage resource, (the 1993 building), is not environment, context or a significant relationship isolated from its environment Direct or indirect obstruction of significant views or views from the public realm of the building are vistas within, from, or of built and natural features screened by the proposed residential building and become private realm vs. public realm views A change in land use (such as rezoning a church to a no change in land use multi -unit residence) where the change in use negates the property's cultural heritage value Land disturbances such as a change in grade that alters no alteration of drainage patterns soils, and drainage patterns that adversely affect a cultural heritage resource, including archaeological resources Minimal negative impact on the cultural heritage resource and no impact to the adjacent cultural heritage resource are expected from the proposed addition and new residential building. 1.6 Conservation - principles and mitigating measures The 1993 building is preserved in situ; its use remains as a residence for seniors. Methods of minimizing or avoiding negative impact on cultural heritage resources, noted by the Ministry of Culture, include but are not limited to the following: Alternative development approaches Alternative development approaches have not, to our knowledge, been proposed, and it would appear that CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment 43 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener none is necessary given that there are no significant negative impacts. • Isolating development and site alteration from the significant built and natural heritage features and vistas The built heritage features, with the exception of the north -facing curtain wall, portions of the entry canopy, and a modification to the stair tower curtain wall, remain intact; views are changed from the public realm to the private realm. • Design guidelines that harmonize mass, setback, setting and materials Massing, setting and materials are harmonized with the existing building. • Limiting height and density Height of the addition is consistent with the existing building. Density is substantially increased by making use of the open space, • Allowing only compatible infill and additions Infill and the addition are compatible. • Reversible alterations Not applicable. 1.7 Proposed alterations justified and explained The alterations are designed to provide a substantial number of new long-term care and seniors' residences, fulfilling an important need in the community. The loss of the ends of the entry canopy is offset by retaining most of the canopy and retaining its symmetry on the doorway as well as the overhangs at each end. Retention of the more visible portion of the stair tower curtain wall, albeit moved slightly north, somewhat compensates for the loss of a slightly smaller portion of the wall. While the large glazed and solid north curtain wall is lost, the visible glazed and solid administration wing curtain wall at the main entrance is retained. 1.8 Recommendations The addition and new building, their locations on the site, and their landscape shall conform to the plans in this impact assessment. As some of the heritage attributes are to be lost and others modified, commemoration in the form of interpretive panels with text and images outlining the history of the property and photographs showing the 1993 building before the addition be placed in the reception area or some other public room. Consideration should also be given to salvaging a section of the curtain wall, either as background for the interpretive display, or as a dividing wall between the old and new. In order to promote the retention of historic information, copies of this report should be deposited with a local repository of historic material. Therefore, it is recommended that this report be deposited at the Kitchener Public Library, Grace Schmidt Room. 1.9 Qualifications of the author completing the Heritage Impact Assessment See Appendix 2. CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment 44 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener 2.0 SUMMARY STATEMENT and CONSERVATION RECOMMENDATIONS • With respect to "the significance and heritage attributes of the subject property", the significance is limited to the existing building and the history of the property and its former occupants. Some of the heritage attributes are affected as is noted. None of the history is lost by the proposed development; rather, another chapter in the property's history of care -giving opens. • Regarding "impact the proposed development will have on the heritage attributes of the subject properties and on the attributes of surrounding protected heritage property", although the site is proposed to house significantly more density, minor negative impact on the heritage attributes of the heritage resource is expected. • As far as "what conservation or mitigative measures, or alternative development, or site alteration approaches are recommended", if the conservation principles espoused in the recommendations above are adhered to, no other mitigating measures, alternative developments, or site alterations are recommended. • Respecting "clarification as to why specific conservation or mitigative measures, or alternative development or site alteration approaches are not appropriate", the proposal generally meets the existing zoning by-laws and it conforms to the Conservation Principles in the Ontario Heritage Toolkit. Recommended mitigating measures are limited to deposit of this report at the Kitchener Public Library, Grace Schmidt Room and implementation of the architectural and landscape architectural designs as found in this report. Alternative development or site alteration approaches are not necessary as the proposal meets policies and by-laws and has minor negative impact on the heritage resource. 3.0 MANDATORY RECOMMENDATION Section 2 of the Planning Act indicates that Council shall have regard to matters of Provincial interest such as the conservation of features of significant architectural, cultural, historical, archaeological or scientific interest. In addition, Section 3 of the Planning Act requires that decisions of Council shall be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement 2014 (PPS). Policy 2.6.1 of the PPS requires that significant built heritage resources and significant cultural heritage landscapes shall be conserved.15 The PPS defines "built heritage resource" as one or more significant buildings, structures, monuments, installations or remains associated with architectural, cultural, social, political economic or military history and identified as being important to a community. These resources may be identified through designation or heritage conservation easement under the Ontario Heritage Act, or listed by local provincial or federal jurisdictions. The term "significant" means resources valued for the important contribution they make to our understanding of the history of a place, an event, or a people. "Conserved" means the identification, protection, use and/or management of cultural heritage and archaeological resources in such a way that their heritage values, attributes and integrity are retained. This may be addressed through a conservation plan or heritage impact assessment. 15 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS, 2014) Cultural Heritage and Archaeology Policies 2.6, InfoSheet#5, Heritage Impact Assessments and Conservation Plans, Winter 2006 CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment 45 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener Ontario Regulation 9/06 `Criteria for Determining Cultural Heritage Value or Interest' 16 states for a property to be considered of cultural heritage value or interest, it must meet one or more of the following criteria: 1. have design value or physical value because it, • is a rare, unique, representative or early example of a style, type, expression, material or construction method, • displays a high degree of craftsmanship or artistic merit, or • demonstrates a high degree of technical or scientific achievement. 2. have historical value or associative value because it, • has direct associations with a theme, event, belief, person, activity, organization or institution that is significant to a community, • yields, or has the potential to yield, information that contributes to an understanding of a community or culture, or • demonstrates or reflects the work or ideas of an architect, artist, builder, designer or theorist who is significant to a community. 3. have contextual value because it, • is important in defining, maintaining or supporting the character of an area, • is physically, functionally, visually or historically linked to its surroundings, or • is a landmark. The potential built heritage resource and potentially significant heritage resource on this property is the 1993 A. R. Goudie Eventide Home. The home is of cultural heritage interest, having been placed on the Heritage Kitchener Inventory of Historic Buildings. The house has design value or physical value. It is a representative example of a style, type, expression, material and construction method (the International Style of Modernism); it displays a high degree of style, craftsmanship and artistic merit (see paragraph 1.4, page 28). The property has historical value or associative value as it has direct associations with a theme, event, belief, persons, activity, organization and institution that is significant to the community. It has the potential to yield information that would contribute to an understanding of the community or culture, and it demonstrates and reflects the work of an architectural firm and a former owner who are significant to the community. The Home retains its form, mass, outline, and materials, and is considered to have contextual value as it is the fourth building in a succession of care homes on this site since 1869. It is the opinion of this author that the building meets the criteria for designation under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act.

The property at 369 Frederick Street is of cultural heritage interest, having been placed on the Heritage Kitchener Inventory of Historic Buildings. Correspondence with the owner in January 2015 requested permission to access the property to take exterior photographs of the building and evaluate the property for possible listing on the City's Municipal Heritage Register. A response was not received at that time. Information on file shows this 1993 modern building, designed by Montgomery Sisam Architects, was featured in Images of Progress: Modern Architecture in Waterloo Region 1946-1996, by the Kitchener Waterloo Art Gallery. The listing states, "The Salvation Army has been a consistent patron of modern architecture. Here the "crisp stucco and glass exterior pays homage to the modern architectural expression of many Salvation Army projects built in Canada since the 1950s." The plan is irregular, to preserve the existing mature trees, but also in the modern tradition of bending the plan to suit spatial and functional needs. The residential wing is set furthest from Frederick Street. In front, a suite of public rooms look toward the entry court through glass walls. A free-standing entrance canopy in concrete, steel and timber provides a sheltered verandah at the entry." The subject property is also located adjacent to a protected heritage property - 362 Frederick Street is designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. Section 2 of the Planning Act identifies matters of provincial interest, which includes the conservation of significant features of architectural, cultural, historical, archaeological or scientific interest. Section 3 of the Planning Act requires that decisions of Council be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS). Policy 2.6.1 of the PPS states that significant built heritage resources and significant cultural heritage landscapes shall be conserved. Policy 2.6.3 states that 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. The PPS defines significant as resources that have been determined to have cultural heritage value or interest for the important contribution they make to our understanding of the history of a place, an event, or a people, and notes that while some significant resources may already be identified and inventoried by official sources, the significance of others can only be determined after evaluation. Regional and municipal policies and guidelines also address the conservation of cultural heritage resources. The Regional Official Plan contains policies that require the conservation of cultural heritage resources. The City's Official Plan contains policies that require development to have regard for and incorporate cultural CHC Limited March 16, 2017 Scoped Heritage Impact Assessment Appendix 1 369 Frederick Street, Kitchener Pre -submission Consultation - Heritage heritage resources into development. These policies establish the requirement for the submission of studies, such as Heritage Impact Assessments (HIA) and Conservation Plans (CP), as part of complete planning applications. The Official Plan also acknowledges that not all cultural heritage resources have been identified; a property does not have to be listed or designated to be considered as having cultural heritage value or interest. In considering the above, the City will require the submission of an HIA and a CP as part of complete planning applications. The HIA will need to assess the potential impact of the subject applications (CofA and SP) and the proposed development on the existing cultural heritage resources on the subject property. If an impact is identified, the HIA must recommend mitigative measures to avoid or reduce those impacts. These measures should be reflected in the planning applications and the design of the development proposal submitted to the City for consideration. It is the opinion of Heritage Planning staff that the proposed planning applications will not negatively impact the adjacent protected heritage property, 362 Frederick Street, and so will not require the HIA to assess potential impacts on it. Heritage Planning staff will avail themselves to review building elevations and provide input and comment to Urban Design and Development Review staff, as required, to ensure the design of the future Retirement Home building complements the adjacent protected heritage property, 362 Frederick Street. In keeping with Ministry and City guidelines on the preparation of HIAs, the following key components will need to be addressed: a) historic research, site analysis and evaluation; b) identification of the significance and heritage attributes of all cultural heritage resources; c) description of the proposed development; d) measurement of development impact to the existing cultural heritage resources on the subject property; e) identification of alternatives, mitigation and conservation methods; f) identification of preferred and recommended conservation, mitigation or avoidance measure(s), together with appropriate implementation and monitoring strategies; and g) concluding value and summary statements. Note that HIAs may be circulated to the City's Heritage Kitchener Committee for information and discussion. A Site Plan Review Committee meeting may not be scheduled until Heritage Kitchener has been provided an opportunity to review and provide feedback to City staff. Approval of the HIA by the Director of Planning will be required prior to Site Plan Approval in Principle. A CP is required where a cultural heritage resource worthy of retention is identified and recommended in the HIA. In keeping with Ministry and City guidelines on the preparation of Conservation Plans, the following key components will need to be addressed: 1. analysis of the cultural heritage resource, including documentation, identification of cultural heritage attributes, assessment of resource conditions and deficiencies; 2. short-, medium- and long-term maintenance and conservation measures including appropriate conservation principles and practices, qualifications of contractors and trades people that should be applied, and an implementation strategy; 3. security requirements, including measures to protect the resource during phases of construction or related development; and 4. cost estimates for short-term maintenance and mitigation measures to be used to determine sufficient monetary amounts for letters of credit or other securities as may be required. The submission of a CP may be waived by City staff in instances where an HIA does not recommend Listing or Designation of a cultural heritage resource, has been reviewed by City staff and is deemed acceptable. In summary, the City will require the submission of a Heritage Impact Assessment and a Conservation Plan as part of complete planning applications. The terms of reference will be consistent with the City's generic terms of reference for HIAs and CPs. Contact Heritage Planning staff for copies.
