Page 4 of 426 Figure 2: Front Facade of Subject Property Window Replacement WalterFedy was retained by the Region of Waterloo to complete a Building Condition Assessment (BCA) for the property municipally addressed as 25 Joseph Street (Attachment C). The intent of the assessment was to determine the physical condition of the different components of the building and make lifecycle repair / replacement recommendations for deficiencies identified. Visual deficiencies, including the damaged windows, were identified during a site visit conducted as part of this work on June 21, 2022. The BCA identified the windows in the original portion of the building as being wood -framed units in poor condition with visible aging and deterioration. It recommended that the windows be refurbished rather than replaced, to maintain the historical value of the building. However, several located on the western elevation of the building contained broken panes of glass (Figure 3-4). Page 5 of 426 ago~ Figure 3-4: Broken Windowpanes on the Subject Property 40 To comply with the recommendations of the BCA, these broken panes are proposed to be replaced with new tempered thermal sealed glass units, frosted for privacy, rather than replace the entire window unit. While the new glass panes are not an exact match to what is currently existing, they will maintain a similar appearance. The broken panes will be removed by first carefully taping the shattered pieces, then using a heat gun to remove the putty around the sash edge. Once this is done the opening will be cleaned and prime painted before the new glass is installed in a new bed of putty with glazier's points every 6 inches. Heritage Planning Comments In reviewing the merits of this application, Heritage Planning Staff note the following: • The subject property municipally addressed as 25 Joseph Street is designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act by way of designating by-law number 1988-154; • The proposal is for the replacement of seven panes of glass on the original 1910- 1911 Edwardian Baroque portion of the building; • The windows are identified as heritage attributes in the designating by-law; • The existing panes of glass proposed to be replaced are broken, impacting resident's quality of living and exposing the interior to damaging conditions; • While replacement is proposed for the broken panes of glass, the original window unit is proposed to be retained and refurbished; • The work is required for the comfort and well-being of the residents; Page 6 of 426 • The work will also protect the interior of the building from damage as a result of weather and animals; • The proposed work is consistent with the Eight Guiding Principles in the Conservation of Built Heritage Properties and with Parks Canada's The Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada; and • The proposed alteration is not anticipated to adversely impact the cultural heritage value or interest of the subject property.

If further assistance or explanation is required please contact heritage planning staff at heritage(a)kitchener.ca. 1. WHAT IS A HERITAGE PERMIT APPLICATION? The Province of Ontario, through the Ontario Heritage Act, has enacted legislation to assist its citizens with the protection and conservation of cultural heritage resources. Once properties are designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, the City is enabled to manage physical change to the cultural heritage resources as a means of protection. The principal mechanism of management is the Heritage Permit Application process, which allows the municipality to review site-specific applications and determine if proposed changes will beneficially or detrimentally affect the reasons for designation and heritage attributes. As a general rule, the preferred alterations to heritage properties are those that repair rather than replace original heritage attributes, and those that do not permanently damage cultural heritage resources and their heritage attributes. Where replacement of materials or new construction is necessary, these should be compatible with the original. Reversibility is also preferable as this allows for the future reinstatement of heritage attributes. According to the Ontario Heritage Act, no owner of designated property shall alter the property or permit the alteration of the property if the alteration is likely to affect the property's heritage attributes, unless the owner applies to the council of the municipality and receives written consent. This consent is obtained through the approval of a Heritage Permit Application. Heritage Permit Applications are applicable for all individually designated properties (under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act) and all properties located within the boundaries of Heritage Conservation Districts (designated under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act). 2. WHEN IS A HERITAGE PERMIT APPLICATION REQUIRED? Under the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, any new construction or "alteration" to a property designated under Part IV of the Act (individually designated property) or a property designated under Part V of the Act (within a Heritage Conservation District) requires a Heritage Permit Application. "Alteration" is defined as: "to change in any manner and includes to restore, renovate, repair or disturb." In addition, the approval of a Heritage Permit Application is required for any demolition of a property designated under Part IV or V of the Act. Please contact Heritage Planning staff directly to confirm if your specific project requires the approval of a Heritage Permit Application. Below are some examples of typical Part IV alterations that may require a Heritage Permit Application: • Addition and/or alteration to an existing building or accessory building • Replacement of windows or doors, or a change in window or door openings • Change in siding, soffit, fascia or roofing material • Removal and/or installation of porches, verandahs and canopies • Removal and/or installation of cladding and chimneys • Changes in trim, cladding, or the painting of masonry Working together • Growing thoughtfully • Building community rage DocuSign Envelope ID: 084EAOCB-33A6-4DDD-A91 E-5AC30F26005F 2024 • Repointing of brick Page 2 of 10 Note: Heritage Permit Application requirements differ between Part V designations depending on the policies and guidelines of the respective Heritage Conservation District Plans. Please refer to the City of Kitchener's website at www.kitchener.ca/heritage to download a copy of the relevant Heritage Conservation District Plan (Civic Centre Neighbourhood, St. Mary's, Upper Doon, and Victoria Park Area). 3. WHAT INFORMATION IS REQUIRED WITH A HERITAGE PERMIT APPLICATION? The information required varies with each application.

An incomplete application cannot be processed and the official notice of receipt (as required under the Ontario Heritage Act) will not be issued until all of the documents have been submitted. Failure to provide a complete application may result in deferral by Heritage Planning staff or the Heritage Kitchener committee in order to secure additional information, which will delay final approval.

For lifecycle replacement, the repeat interval is usually equal to the normal life expectancy of the component. For regular maintenance recommendations, the repeat interval is determined based on the existing condition, consultant's professional opinion, and staff/tenant's reports. Action Cost This is the estimated cost of the action recommended, repairs and/replacement, derived from the market or building cost services, which publish construction and remodeling costs on an annual basis. Replacement cost estimates are generally based on local material costs, union labor costs and normal construction conditions. Action Description This provides the details of the work recommended to be undertaken. Action Year This indicates the year in which the action recommended should be undertaken. FCI Facility Condition Index Overall Condition This identifies the overall condition of the entire element/system. For example, a new flat roof is in good overall condition, but there may be localized minor damage to the roof membrane, drainage, or flashing, etc. The observed minor defect will not affect the good overall condition. Replacement Cost These are unit cost estimates of various building components, derived from the market or building cost services, which publish construction and remodeling costs on an annual basis. Replacement cost estimates are generally based on local material costs, union labour costs and normal construction conditions. The represent the costs of major repairs or replacements at the current prices and under current conditions Reserve Fund Study (RFS) This is a study for future funding of the reserve fund that the board determines will ensure that, within a prescribed period of time and in accordance with the prescribed requirements, the fund will be adequate for the purpose for which it was established. SF Square Footage Year Installed This date indicates the timing of the installation of the element. It is noted that this date will vary for elements throughout the facility.

Annual investment on maintenance, repair and end -of - life replacement of building components will be required over the next thirty (30) years in order to ensure the building lifecycle is maximized and it remains in safe condition for the users of the building. The annual expenditure forecast in each year is not constant due to different remedial actions that have been identified, and differing lifecycles for different equipment types. Therefore, WalterFedy provides annual average, maximum annual investment, and total forecast investment value over the study period, as listed in the tables below where the dollar amounts are expressed in 2022 costs without inflation: Capital Cost Forecast (Lifecycle Replacement) Page 28 of 426 Region of Waterloo Building Condition Assessment Kitchener Housing — 25 JOSEPH ST., Kitchener Repair Cost Forecast Average Annual Expenditure [$] $439,485 Maximum Annual Expenditure [$] $1,290,100 Total 30 -Year Expenditure [$] $13,624,050 *2022 dollars without inflation Average Annual Expenditure [$] $20,581 Maximum Annual Expenditure [$] $89,250 Total 30 -Year Expenditure [$] $638,000 *2022 dollars without inflation 1.3 General Summary 7 The report identifies and makes lifecycle repair/replacement recommendations for deficiencies visually identified while on-site on June 21, 2022. Within the property condition assessment methodology, each major component was assessed for condition, based on a visual review, while factoring in component history, current maintenance practices, and time since the last major replacement/ repair. The assessed condition of the component is then compared against industry -accepted "expected useful life" values for each component type. An inventory of needs was then developed based on age, condition, and the relative impact that failure of that particular component represents for the building. 1.4 Structural Summary The original foundation is comprised of parged clay brick masonry foundation walls extending below grade, a poured concrete basement floor slab, and poured concrete footings extending below grade.

When further details are required to fully understand the scope of a deficiency that is identified, WalterFedy recommends further study and investigative work to be done. 1 Where Applicable Page 32 of 426 Region of Waterloo Building Condition Assessment 11 Kitchener Housing — 25 JOSEPH ST., Kitchener Building components are identified using the ASTM E1557 - 09(2015) Standard Classification for Building Elements and Related Sitework-UNIFORMATII. This industry -recognized standard allows an easy -to -understand description of the building components, as well as a logical method to analyze collected data. 2.3 Recommended Actions When necessary WalterFedy will develop Recommended Action items for components. The Actions are classified as one of the following categories: Table 2: Possible Action Type Categories Action Type Definition Repair The existing component is functioning, but in need of repair so that it will function to its intended capacity and design lifecycle Replacement The existing component cannot be effectively repaired due to • the cost of repair being greater than the cost of a new component, • outdated technology, • the component is at its expected normal useful lifecycle, or • a repair will not be effective at resolving any deficiencies Install A component that is required is missing and should be installed Study Further detailed assessment including possible destructive testing is required in order to fully understand the requirements for the component Action items are developed based on the knowledge of WalterFedy's assessors and industry standards (including applicable Code requirements). 2.4 Cost Estimates Action cost estimates provided in this report should be considered Class "D" estimates (i.e., ±25% of expected actual costs) and are provided as a preliminary estimate of the expected costs to repair the deficiencies identified by WalterFedy assessors. The cost values are determined by identifying the requirements for an element or component of the building and then estimating element replacement costs and/or a reasonable lump sum allowance for the recommended work. The action cost estimates are, unless otherwise stated, reflective of the cost to remove the existing element and replace it with a new version of the element that would provide equivalent service (i.e., a "like -for -like" replacement). These costs are determined from a combination of source information: RS Means is an industry leader specializing in providing baseline cost estimates for building systems. Their costing databases compare building activities across North America in order to establish baseline cost estimates for replacement or installation of components and elements adjusted for the geographic location of the subject building. RS Means costs include an allowance for a contractor's overhead and profit. WalterFedy also makes use of information from other current and past projects completed by our firm that include work similar in scope to the actions recommended in the BCA reports. Page 33 of 426 Region of Waterloo Building Condition Assessment Kitchener Housing — 25 JOSEPH ST., Kitchener 12 Finally, with an extensive project history in Southwestern Ontario and beyond, WalterFedy has relationships with many local contractors, and has gained a good understanding of current building construction, market trends and costs. The information from the sources listed above is compiled, reviewed and maintained in an internal database of action costs for actions or building elements that are relevant to the building(s) in this study. This database is regularly reviewed and updated as necessary in order to ensure that our cost estimates match current market values. Cost estimates are prepared in 2022 Canadian Dollars (i.e., the year of assessment) and include a 20% contingency fee to cover unforeseen costs plus a 10% contingency fee to cover applicable consulting fees, but do not include any applicable taxes. The cost estimates assume work is performed at one time and, as such, do not include general project management costs, or costs for a contractor to mobilize for a project that might result from a combination of multiple actions into one larger project. More precise cost estimates would require more detailed investigations and design work than provided for in the scope of work of this project. WalterFedy cannot guarantee or warrant that the final costs will not exceed these estimated amounts, or that all ancillary costs related to the recommended actions are covered. 2.5 Action Year For each identified action WalterFedy also identifies a year when that action should occur. This timing is based on our knowledge of the typical lifecycles of building components before replacement is expected, but will also be developed taking into consideration the unique situation of the component. When a component lifecycle is less than the length of the study period (i.e., less than 30 years) the action item will appear as many times in the future as the lifecycle requires within the study period. 2.6 Condition and Priority Rating System As part of the RFP package, the client provided a template worksheet for identifying the various components within the building, including defined condition ratings: Table 3: Condition Definitions Condition Definition Very Good Asset is physically sound and is performing its function as originally intended. Required maintenance costs are well within standards and norms. Typically, asset is new or recently rehabilitated. Good Asset is physically sound and is performing its function as originally intended. Required maintenance costs are within acceptable standards and norms but are increasing. Typically, the asset has been used for some time but is within mid -stage of its expected life. Fair Asset is showing signs of deterioration and is performing at a lower level than originally intended. Some components of the asset are becoming physically deficient. Required maintenance costs exceed acceptable standards and norms are increasing. Typically, asset has been used for a long time and is within the later stage of its expected life. Poor Asset is showing significant signs of deterioration and is performing to a much lower level than originally intended. A major portion of the asset is physically deficient. Required maintenance costs significantly exceed acceptable standards and norms. Typically, asset is approaching the end of its expected life. Page 34 of 426 Region of Waterloo Building Condition Assessment 13 Kitchener Housing — 25 JOSEPH ST., Kitchener Very Poor Asset is physically unsound and/or not performing as originally intended. Asset has higher probability of failure or failure is imminent. Maintenance costs are unacceptable and rehabilitation is not cost effective. Replacement/major refurbishment is required. 3 FACILITY CONDITION INDEX (FCI) 3.1 General Information and Methodology The FCI is an industry standard key performance indicator (KPI) which can be used to objectively quantify and evaluate the current condition (i.e., physical health) of an individual building, or to compare an individual building to other buildings in a portfolio. It is based on the financial needs of the building only, and can help building owners and managers make benchmark comparisons on the relative condition of buildings but should be used with care. The FCI will not allow identification of priority actions or levels of risk associated with the building, nor a detailed list of all the required Actions. By using projected renewal and replacement costs a future FCI can be predicted that will demonstrate the changing condition of the building over time. FCI is typically expressed using the following equation: FCI = Total Renewal and Repair Costs Building Replacement Cost Where: • Renewal and repair costs are determined by the identified Repair or Replacement Action items. • The building replacement cost represents the construction cost to building a building the same size, with the same function, in accordance with current Standards and Codes, exclusive of land or real estate market costs. The following benchmarks are typical industry standards used to indicate the overall building condition based on the FCI calculation: • FCI: 0-5% Good Condition • FCI: 5-10% Fair Condition • FCI: 10-30% Poor Condition • FCI: >30% Critical Condition Unless advised otherwise, WalterFedy uses a unit -cost -per -area construction cost based on current construction market costs and comparable buildings. 3.2 Subject Building Details As it stands, the building is currently in Good condition overall with an FCI score of 0.00%. In order to examine how the condition of the building may change, we assume a "worst case" scenario where no investment is made to the building. The FCI will continue to worsen (i.e., the percentage value will increase) and over the next ten (10) years, the calculated 10 -year average FCI value is 12.64%. That means the facility will be in Poor condition overall. If the FCI is calculated in a longer term such as 20-30 years, some of the lifecycle replacement actions may be repeated. Therefore, the calculation results will not accurately reflect the actual condition. Figure 1 displays the FCI graph over the thirty (30) year study period. Page 35 of 426 Region of Waterloo Building Condition Assessment Kitchener Housing — 25 JOSEPH ST., Kitchener 14 Figures 2 and 3 provide an annual breakdown of forecast expenditures: Figure 2 represents the forecast replacement costs (i.e., due to lifecycle needs or other reasons) and Figure 3 represents the forecast repair costs for elements that do not require full replacement, but do require attention to return them to satisfactory condition.

(905) 206-0555 May 25, 2022 '�! (Fuge �M" R 426 SUMMARY On May 9, 2022, Solucore Inc. performed an inspection of the vertical transportation equipment located at 25 Joseph Street, in Kitchener, Ontario, for Walterfedy. The purpose of the inspection was to check the general condition and operation of the equipment and to note concerns and deficiencies. A detailed reserve fund study and performance audit was performed. The vertical transportation consists of 2 traction Passenger elevators. A visual review of the equipment was performed and the available documentation in the equipment room was reviewed. This inspection did not include a review of the safety aspects of the installation as this falls under the jurisdiction of the governing authorities. There are no major areas in which the equipment is not in compliance with current codes except as noted. An electronic copy of the maintenance contract was not provided for review. The elevators appear to be covered under the terms of a full maintenance contract with Delta Elevator. The typical elevator "full maintenance" contract covers the replacement of major components in addition to the labour and materials necessary for ongoing repairs, adjustment and preventative maintenance work. Entrances and cab finishes are normally excluded. As long as "full maintenance" is purchased the only additional costs to the Owner should be for malicious damage, repairs to the elevator cabs and entrances and replacement of obsolescent parts. We are assuming, of course, that repairs required due to accidents or "Acts of God" (flood, fire, etc.) are covered by insurance. The schematics are located in the machine room and were laminated. The Maintenance Control Program (MCP) was also reviewed and all items appear to be complete. The fire testing according to Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) Code Amendment Document (CAD) 261-13 r1 and Director's Order 239/10 has been completed and is available in the machine room. The vertical transportation equipment installed at this location is generally considered to be of average quality in terms of longevity, reliability and performance. The elevators have been located in an adequate manner to provide a reasonable level of service for a building of this type and size. Car top railings have been installed and are compliant with TSSA Code Amendment Document (CAD) 261-13 r1 and Director's Order 245/10. Machine guarding has been installed as per Ministry of Labour (MOL) requirements. The elevators were modernized in 2017 and will most likely require modernization again in the long term of this review. This is mostly due to shortage in parts and expertise. Modernizing the equipment will also bring the elevators up to new code requirements. Therefore, we have made some recommendations in the Possible Upgrades and Concerns section of the report. S050�f8T003(905) 206 25 E0555PH TREET, KITCHENER May 25, 2022 ��� e 3 of 18 P fessional nese +� wage 1�! of 426 ITEMS OF CONCERN PASSENGER Controls Passenger: 1, 2 - The Delta elevator controls provided at this site are considered to be of reasonable quality. The controllers are provided in several installations around the country. The controller is having Delta Diagnostic Interface (DDI) to access the DMPC elevator controller, which may render them easy for others to service and maintain. The advantages of having a non-proprietary elevator control system are: greater flexibility in selecting the elevator contractor; ability to get competitive quotes; and wider sources for parts. The manufacturer should also provide a certificate to the Owner pledging support for parts and labour. Elevator Ride Passenger: 1, 2 - The ride profiles consist of horizontal vibrations (front to rear or X-axis and side to side or Y-axis) and vertical vibrations (up and down or Z-axis) as well as jerk and acceleration. Some of these vibrations are above the recommended value and should be adjusted to improve the overall ride quality. Manuals Passenger: 1, 2 - A complete set of manuals should be provided to the Owner with the latest information on this elevator equipment. The information should include the following where applicable: door operator manual, door locks, clutch and door operator arms adjustment manual, car top devices, motor, machine, governor, rope gripper, drive, controller, safeties, and door infrared detector manuals. Performance Passenger: 1, 2 - We observed during our maintenance audit that the elevator control system is not adequately adjusted to provide optimum performance. Given the type of elevator(s) installed, the performance can be significantly improved. Some of the performance concerns identified during the inspection include: car up and down times, door open and close times and car dwell times.

The Operating Time is measured from the time the doors begin to close until they are three quarters open at the next floor. 2. The Door Open Time is measured from the time the doors begin to open until they are fully open. 3. The Door Close Time is measured from the time the doors begin to close until they are completely closed. 4. The Door Dwell times are measured from the time the doors are fully open until they start to close after answering a hall or car call. 5. Hall Advance Time is measured in seconds from the time the hall directional lantern chimes until the door begins to open. 6. Noise levels are measured with an ANSI type 2 sound level meter on the "A" scale, set for an "F" response. For elevators the running (fan) noise level is measured inside the cab with the doors closed; the door operation noise level is measured during a full door open and close cycle. For escalators the ambient noise level is measured at the respective landing with the meter at eye level; escalator noise level is measured with the meter pointed to the respective deck plate. 7. Unless otherwise stated, all times are in seconds, all distances are in inches (in) or millimeters (mm), all speeds are in feet per minute (fpm) or meter per second (mps), all capacities are in pounds (lbs) or kilograms (kg), all sound levels are in decibels, all temperatures are in degrees Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C) and all forces are in pound -force (lbf) or Newton (N). 8. Unless otherwise stated, for elevators the terms "left" and "right" are used viewing the elevator from the hall lobby. For escalators the terms "left" and "right" are used viewing the escalator from the bottom landing looking up. 9. Acceleration is the change in velocity and is measured in feet per second squared (ft/sec') or meter per second squared (m/sec') and is measured from peak -to -peak. 10. Jerk is the rate of change in acceleration and is measured in feet per second cubed (ft/sec') or meter per second cubed (m/sec').

We would suggest that money be set aside for the following upgrades that will likely be required (voluntarily or otherwise) over the next 30 years. Please note that all capital costs are in today's dollar and these costs are estimates for budgetary purpose only. These costs can change without notice due to fluctuation in the Canadian Dollar, changes in the collective agreement, inflation, war, and strikes. REQUIRED IMMEDIATE (Passenger) Rusting - Door Equipment (1, 2) Some of the door equipment such as hall doors, entrance frames, car door equipment and sills are rusting and the presence of rust on the equipment will eventually cause damage. To prevent further deterioration from occurring, the equipment should be sanded and painted so that further damage does not occur. The scope of work includes cleaning and treating the steel, sanding the equipment and priming and painting. Some components may need to be replaced as required. Total cost of upgrade : $4,000 REQUIRED - SHORT TERM (Passenger) Code Changes and Vandalism (Short Term) (1, 2) Some money should be set aside for code changes and to repair vandalism of the equipment or for other items not covered under the maintenance contract. If the money is not used, it can be redistributed to help finance some of the capital upgrade items. Total cost of upgrade : $10,000 REQUIRED - MIDTERM (Passenger) Code Changes and Vandalism (Mid Term) (1, 2) Some money should be set aside for code changes and to repair vandalism of the equipment or for other items not covered under the maintenance contract. If the money is not used, it can be redistributed to help finance some of the capital upgrade items. Total cost of upgrade : $10,000 Door Operators (1, 2) The existing door operator(s) have a closed loop system. However, newer closed loop door operators are entering the market that are more efficient and durable while still adjusting the door closing force to compensate for wind pressure and other obstacles. Since door related calls represent 80% of the callbacks, it is not uncommon to upgrade the door operators prior to a modernization. Therefore, an upgrade is recommended.

(wage 1�' 426 OPTIONAL - MID TERM (Passenger) Cab and Fixture Upgrade (1, 2) The existing passenger cab enclosure(s) are in good condition, but starting to show signs of wear and tear. The fixtures are in good condition, but are also easily damaged and stop buttons if equipped can also cause problems with vandals. Hence, upgrading the cab and fixtures may be required in order to maintain a consistent standard and clean looking elevator cab(s). Furthermore, upgrading the fixtures will increase the user's confidence with the elevator because new fixtures are associated with new elevators. The upgrade will include emergency light, new hall and car pushbuttons, new service panel and switches, integrated security capabilities where required, tactile markings, new digital position indicator where chosen, integrated hands-free phone and license certificate. The cab would also be refurbished. Total cost of upgrade : $50,000 REQUIRED - LONG TERM (Passenger) Major Modernization (1, 2) Over time elevators will require modernization as certain elevator components may be unavailable due to obsolescence. Additionally, as newer equipment designs become more predominant, the service personnel capable of performing necessary adjustments will become increasingly difficult to find. Thus, in order to remain competitive and ensure reliable elevator service over the long term, modernization of the elevators will likely be required. Though parts are still available from elevator parts manufacturers they will become increasingly difficult to source and expertise in trouble -shooting may eventually become scarce. The elevating device system in this complex is equipped with a Variable Voltage Variable Frequency (VVVF) drive. This design has become very common and popular. Therefore, a major modernization is anticipated depending on the need to compete with other buildings, and how well this equipment functions. The scope of work would include replacing existing controller with newer microprocessor based controls, replacing existing motor controls with newer solid-state electronic VVVF, providing emergency lighting, and updating cab and fixtures if not already performed. Barrier free requirements should also be addressed during this time if not compliant with local legislation. Other costs for items like taxes, electrical work and patching should be added to the overall cost. We recommend budgeting a contingency of 20% to cover these additional costs.

REPORT HIGHLIGHTS: • The purpose of this report is to present the proposed demolition of the property municipally addressed as 1027 King Street East, presently listed as a non -designated property of cultural heritage value or interest on the Municipal Heritage Register, as a Notice of Intention to Demolish dated January 17th, 2024 has been submitted (Attachment A). • The key finding of this report is that the Art Deco style tower is the only remaining component of the property which demonstrates cultural heritage value or interest. While its demolition would be considered an adverse impact as it results in the removal of original heritage fabric that possesses design/physical value, mitigation measures including salvage, documentation, and commemoration have been or are proposed to be implemented. Council should let the notice period run its course as designation is not recommended. • There are no financial implications associated with this report. • Community engagement included consultation with the Heritage Kitchener Committee. • This report supports the delivery of core services. *** This information is available in accessible formats upon request. *** Please call 519-741-2345 or TTY 1-866-969-9994 for assistance. Page 188 of 426 BACKGROUND: The Development Services Department is in receipt of a Notice of Intention to Demolish the existing building located on the property municipally addressed as 1027 King Street East, which is listed as a non -designated property of cultural heritage value or interest on the City's Municipal Heritage Register. The subject property was listed by City Council on February 1 st, 2010, and a copy of the associated Statement of Significance for the property can be found in Attachment B. The building is known as the former home of the Onward Manufacturing Company, which operated in this location from 1916 until approximately 1980. f� V 967 �4. !!I \ 983 991 1074 1001 �r KING EAST 5 51.6 t1 007 f f ! f !1015 51 fi � Sia 7 1122 q 50 Iw11LLcOURTLAND VVOODSIDE PARK ST • �� �(;` P y.° F~ ti 564 rG] 14� 1105 r 1S 511 ~r 22 ;per 11125f��. /1175 Figure 1: Location Map of 1001-1027 King Street East and 534-564 Charles Street East An Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment that included the subject property was previously submitted to the City in 2022 and have received approval from Kitchener Council. The purpose of the amendments was to redesignate the lands to `Mixed Use Corridor with Special Policy Area 10', rezone the lands to `High Intensity Mixed Use corridor Zone (MU -3) with Special Regulation Provision 544R, 788R, and Holding Provision 100H, and increase or reduce various permissions including the maximum Floor Space Ratio, parking rates, and property setbacks. A Site Plan Application (Sp23/075/K/CD) has now been submitted, proposing the redevelopment of the site with a mixed-use building containing two towers, 11 and 29 storeys in height, as well as a four -storey podium. The demolition of the existing building is required to facilitate this construction. Page 189 of 426 Ontario Heritage Act Provisions Part IV, Section 27(9), of the Ontario Heritage Act provides certain protections to properties listed as non -designated property on the City's Municipal Heritage Register: Restriction on demolition, etc. (9) If a property that has not been designated under this Part has been included in the register under subsection (3), the owner of the property shall not demolish or remove a building or structure on the property or permit the demolition or removal of the building or structure unless the owner gives the council of the municipality at least 60 days notice in writing of the owner's intention to demolish or remove the building or structure or to permit the demolition or removal of the building or structure. 2019, c. 9, Sched. 11, s. 6. (11) The notice required by subsection (9) shall be accompanied by such plans and shall set out such information as the council may require. 2019, c. 9, Sched. 11, s. 6. A Notice of Intention to Demolish dated January 17, 2024 has been received by Heritage Planning Staff (Attachment A). The Notice was accompanied by a revised Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) and Salvage, Documentation, and Commemoration Plan, prepared by MHBC Planning and dated January 2024 (Attachment C and D, respectively). Both are in their draft stage and have not yet received approval from the Director of Development and Housing but are sufficient to consider the Notice complete. In accordance with the Act, Council has 60 days to act, if it so chooses, on the Notice of Intention to Demolish. The 60 days provides Council with the time it requires to issue a Notice of Intention to Designation as a means of preventing the demolition. REPORT: The subject property (Figure 2) is located on the south side of King Street East and north side of Charles Street East, between the Ottawa Street South intersection to the east and the Borden Avenue South intersection to the west. Several properties were merged on title in 2020 to create the existing 1.60 -acre parcel currently subject to the site plan application. However, at the time it was listed on the Municipal Heritage Register, 1027 King Street East was an individual property (Figure 3). As such, though the site is occupied by nine structures, the former Onward Manufacturing Company building is the only identified heritage resource. The development proposal includes the demolition of all structures on the site. Those that are not subject to heritage review and are non-residential are exempt from demolition control. Per the Statement of Significance associated with the listing of 1027 King Street East, the building was recognized for its design/physical, historical/associative, and contextual values. Identified heritage attributes included all elements related to the construction and Industrial Vernacular architectural style of the building, as well as all elements related to the context, including the relationship of the original building to King Street and Onward Avenue.

Heritage designation is a protection mechanism with long-term implications for the alteration and demolition of a cultural heritage resource. Ontario Regulation 9/06 of the Ontario Heritage Act, now amended by Ontario Regulation 569/22, prescribes the criteria for determining property of cultural heritage value or interest. The regulation requires that, to be designated, a property must meet two or more of nine set criteria. The criteria can be broadly grouped into the categories of Design / Physical Value, Historical / Associative Value, and Contextual Value. Heritage Impact Assessment Due to its status as a non -designated property of cultural heritage value or interest on the Municipal Heritage Register, a draft Heritage Impact Assessment has been prepared by MHBC Planning. The initial draft was submitted in November 2021, and the study has gone through several revisions, with the most recent occurring in January 2024. The purpose of the draft HIA was to evaluate 1027 King Street East against the criteria of Ontario Regulation 9/06, determine potential impacts to the cultural heritage resource as a result of the proposed redevelopment, and recommend appropriate mitigation measures. The initial draft of the HIA was presented to the Heritage Kitchener Committee on January 4t', 2022. No comments or concerns were identified by the Committee at this time. r Figure 4: Division of Building Per the HIA (photograph provided by MHBC) 1011 The evaluation divided the building into three different sections, referred to as Section `A', Section `B', and Section `C'. It determined that Section `A' and `C' met two of the nine criteria for designation, well Section `B' met three. A summary of the evaluation is provided in the table below, copied from the draft HIA. Page 192 of 426 Ontario Regulation 9/06 1027 King Street E The property has design value or physical Only section `B' is considered value because it is a rare, unique, representative of a particular architectural representative or early example of a style, style (Art Deco). All other portions of the type, material, or construction method. building (Sections `A' and `C') have been extensively altered and features have been removed. As a result, Sections `A' and `C' have not retained their heritage integrity and are not considered representative of a particular architectural style. The property has design value or physical No. value because it displays a high degree of craftsmanship or artistic merit.

Page 193 of 426 The property has contextual value because No. it is a landmark. Though the draft HIA established that the building satisfied criterion for designation, it does not recommend that the property be designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. It suggests that Sections `A' and `C' of the building have been altered to the extent that they have lost their heritage integrity, and states that as they have no significant design/physical value, their demolition could be classified as being a negligible impact. The demolition of Section `B' was identified as being an adverse impact, as this section has design/physical value as a representative and rare example of the Art Deco architectural style and having retained the majority of its heritage attributes. Alternative development approaches were considered within the draft HIA, including redevelopment of the site in a manner that allowed for the retention, integration, and restoration of Section `B' of the original building. A structural assessment was undertaken by Strike, Baldinelli and Monix on June 22, 2021 to determine the viability of this approach. The assessment, found in Appendix C of the draft HIA, determined that it would be incredibly difficult to stabilize and redevelop the existing structure to comply with present-day building codes and requirements, due to the age, material, and construct of the tower. The draft HIA concludes that as the retention of the existing tower is not feasible, the demolition of all buildings and structures on the property is the preferred development option. The recommended mitigation measures provided includes photographic documentation of the property and building, as well as salvage and commemoration. Documentation, Saivape, and Commemoration Report An initial draft Documentation, Salvage, and Commemoration Report was prepared and submitted by MHBC Planning in November 2021. The report has undergone several revisions, with the most recent being in January, 2024. The purpose of this study is twofold: the first intent is to record and document the known history, buildings, and structures identified as having cultural heritage value or interest on the subject property. The second intent is to identify historic materials that may be salvaged, reused, and/or interpreted in the proposed new development as commemoration. Documentation is provided within this report in the form of measured architectural drawings and a photo map and photographs. The photographs capture both the interior and exterior. Figure 5 below is an excerpt from the draft report which identifies what items are recommended for salvage. Items categorized as A have significant heritage value, while items categorized a B have modest heritage value.

They will be stored indoors off-site, wrapped with tarps and on wood pallets until their re -use. Should any of the recommended materials not be salvageable, it is recommended that the commemorative displays detailed below include additional images and text which communicate the features of the building that have been removed. Interior Commemoration The Eureka Terazzo Tile, exterior column, and door/window entry frame and cornice are proposed to be reused to create an interior display (Figure 6). The salvaged window is proposed to include two photographs (Figure 7 and 8) as well as the following text: "The property on which you stand is the former location of the Onward Manufacturing Company. The Onward Manufacturing Company was started by Theodore Adam "Ted" Witzel (b. 1875). The company became the first in Canada to manufacture Onward and Triumph brand vacuums. Ted Witzel obtained exclusive rights to manufacture and sell the "Eureka" brand vacuum cleaner in 1909. The features of this display, including the "Eureka" tile were extracted from the building formerly in this location. During World War 11 the Onward Manufacturing Company shifted production to manufacture arms and ammunition. After the war, the company expanded again to manufacture barbeques and developed brands such as Broil King."

Figure 9: Rendering of Proposed Commemorative Timeline The second commemorative feature is an Art Deco style mural reminiscent of Section B of the original building (Figure 10). The mural is designed within a tall and rectangular portion of the building and includes a series of concentric circles and geometric shapes indicative of the art and design movements of the Art Deco period. Page 197 of 426 Figure 10: Rendering of Proposed Commemorative Art Deco Style Mural Council's Options Under the Ontario Heritage Act, Council does not have the authority to approve or refuse an owner's Notice of Intention to Demolish. Rather, Council's options include the following: 1. Request further information. 2. Receive the Notice of Intention to Demolish, allowing the notice period to run its course, at the end of which the Building Division may issue a demolition permit as early as May 16, 2022. 3. Council may issue a Notice of Intention to Designate, at which point Council would have the authority to deny demolition. Heritage Planning Staff Comment Heritage Planning Staff provide the follow comments with regard to Council's options noted above. Heritage Planning Staff are of the opinion that sufficient information have been received to consider the request. Staff are in agreement with the conclusions of the evaluation against Criteria 9/06 within the draft Heritage Impact Assessment, which establishes that the primary Page 198 of 426 significance of the building lies in its historical association with the Onward Manufacturing Company and Theodore A. Witzel, and that Section `B' is the only part to have retained enough of the original features to have design/physical value. Per the structural assessment completed by Strik, Baldinelli and Monix which forms part of the draft HIA, the retention of the portion of the building that still possesses tangible heritage value is not feasible. The Art Deco style tower relies on the adjacent portion of the buildings for structural stability. Were it to be retained, large steel columns and bracing would be required to bring it to up to the current Ontario Building Code standards. This would alter the appearance of the tower and therefore impact its heritage integrity. Further, the hollow clay blocks used in the construction of the tower are likely no longer manufactured, being created before the current codes which prescribe the required compressive strength of masonry units. As the retention of the structure is not a viable option, documentation, salvage, and commemoration are appropriate mitigation measures. The proposed interior and exterior commemoration features are sufficient to capture the intangible heritage values and interests of the site, that being the association with the Onward Manufacturing Company and Theodore A. Witzel. The salvaged material incorporated within the proposed features in addition to the design of the proposed features encapsulates the design and physical value. The contextual value is also respected, as the terminating view from the Onward Axis will be of the proposed Art Deco mural and memory wall. In consideration of the above, it is Heritage Planning Staffs opinion that no action to designate 1027 King Street East is required. Of Council's available options, it is recommended that Option 2 be the appropriate course of action to pursue, that being Council revied the Notice of Intention to Demolish and allow the notice period to run its course.

Various additions and modifications have occurred to the building resulting in no single distinct architectural style. One interesting addition was the construction of a central tower addition, which is influenced by the Art Deco architectural style. The building is situated on a 0.76 acre parcel of land located on the south side of King Street East between Borden Avenue and Ottawa Street in the King East Planning Community of the City of Kitchener within the Region of Waterloo. The principal resource that contributes to the heritage value is the original building and Art Deco addition. Heritage Value 1027 King Street East is recognized for its contextual, historical and associative values. The original building is representative of industrial vernacular architecture. The building is three bays wide by six bays deep. Three bays face both King Street East and Charles Street East. The main fagade is King Street East. The building features: brick construction; brick pilasters; large window openings; and, concrete headers and sills. The contextual value relates to the buildings location and design. The fagade of the original building is parallel to King Street East and is perpendicular to Onward Avenue. The original building is located directly across from Onward Avenue resulting in a clear view down Onward Avenue towards the front fagade of the original building. It is clear that the original architect and builder considered the importance of siting the building directly across from Onward Avenue. Page 203 of 426 APPENDIX `A': STATEMENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE The historic and associative values relate to the original owner and use of the building as well as the architect of the 1946 addition. The original owner was Theodore Adam Witzel of the Onward Manufacturing Company Limited. In 1906, Mr. Witzel's company became the first in Canada to manufacture and sell hand vacuum sweepers and electric vacuum cleaners under the trade names of Onward and Triumph. The company was renamed Onward Manufacturing Company Limited in 1908. In 1908 a second company, The Eureka Vacuum Cleaner Company, was established. The vacuums were manufactured in the US while the Onward Manufacturing Company Limited focused on product distribution throughout Canada. The plant opened at 1027 King Street East, Kitchener, in 1914. The Eureka and Onward companies were amalgamated under the name Onward Manufacturing Company Limited in 1924. After the war, the company expanded to manufacture cabinet and utility hardware in 1946. Mr. Witzel died in 1948 and his son Theodore Andrew Witzel Senior (1918-1995) became the President. The company continued to grow between 1949 and 1960 with the introduction of home appliance distribution. In 1966, National Union Electric Corporation of Stamford, Connecticut purchased 80% of the Eureka vacuum cleaner and appliance distribution division as well as the name Onward Manufacturing Company Limited. T.A. Witzel, Sr. remained President of Onward Manufacturing Limited until his resignation in 1974. He retained ownership and was President of Onward Hardware Limited for the manufacturing and selling of cabinet and general hardware and developed another Company he owned known as Tawco Limited for commercial cleaning equipment distribution and franchising coin operated laundry and dry cleaning stores. Vernon's Directory records suggest that the business operated at 1027 King Street East for approximately 67 years until 1981. Around that time, Onward Hardware began to manufacture fireplace inserts and charcoal water smokers and an appliance retail division (now known as T.A. Appliance Warehouse) was established at 932 Victoria Street North, Kitchener. T.A. Witzel Senior passed away in 1995 and the company is now owned and operated by his three sons. The company was divided into three separate companies in 2000. The barbecue division adopted the original name "Onward Manufacturing Company Limited", the hardware division became "Onward Cluthe Hardware Products Inc.", and the appliance division became "TA Appliance Inc." All three companies continue to operate. The architects of the 1946 addition to the building at 1027 King Street East were William Stuart Jenkins and Sherman W. Wright. Jenkins and Wright were best known for their designs of municipal arena complexes in several Ontario towns and for the restoration in 1952 of `Woodside' the home of William Lyon Mackenzie King. Jenkins and Wright were the architects for the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium. Heritage Attributes The heritage value of 1027 King Street East resides in the following heritage attributes: ■ All elements related to the construction and Industrial Vernacular architectural style of the building, including: o Roof and roofline; o Large window openings, including concrete headers and sills; and, Page 204 of 426 APPENDIX `A': STATEMENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE o Brick construction, including brick pilasters; All elements related to the context, including the relationship of the original building to King Street and Onward Avenue.

Acknowledgement of Indigenous Communities This HIA acknowledges that the subject lands are located on the traditional territory of the Anishinabek (whoseland.ca) and is associated with the following treaties: • Haldimand Treaty The Haldimand Treaty of 1784 is related to the Haldimand Tract, which runs 6 miles on both sides of the Grand River and was originally comprised of 950, 000 acres of land. The settlement of these lands by Euro -Canadian settlers began in 1798 (Source: accessed online in 2021 at sixnations.ca) November2022, updatedJanuary2024 MHBC 13 Page 211 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 7007-7057 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener Executive Summary MHBC was retained to undertake a Heritage Impact Assessment for the proposed development of the subject lands located at 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener. The proposed development of the subject lands includes the demolition of all buildings and structures to facilitate the construction of a mixed-use development. The purpose of this Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) is to evaluate the proposed development in terms of potential impacts to cultural heritage resources located on-site and adjacent. The property located at 1027 King Street East is 'listed' (non -designated) on the City of Kitchener Register of Properties of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest. The subject lands includes a building which is known locally as the former home of the Onward Manufacturing Company which operated at this location from 1916 until approximately 1980. The building has been altered over time and has lost original heritage fabric and as a result, its heritage integrity has been compromised. The existing building is comprised of three main sections which are visible from King Street. These components are described in this report as Sections 'A', 'B', and 'C'. The central portion of the building (Section "B") includes elements indicative of the Art Deco architectural style and was constructed subsequent to sections "A" and "C". A structural analysis has been completed for the building and has determined that Section "B" is not a stand-alone structure and likely relies on Sections "A" and "C" for structural stability. The Art Deco style tower (Section 'B ii') is the only remaining component of the site which demonstrates design/physical value. Portions A, B, and C of the building also serve as a terminus of the view from Onward Avenue looking south towards King Street. The Onward Avenue neighbourhood has been identified by the City as a potential Cultural Heritage Landscape. The demolition of the building at 1027 King Street is considered a negligible adverse impact given that it has been extensively altered and its integrity has been compromised. In particular, Sections "A" and "C" in have been altered to the extent that original fabric has been removed and no longer communicates its original design features. Details regarding structural and condition issues with the building are provided in Section 8.1 of this report as well as Appendix C. The demolition of the Art Deco tower (i.e. Section "B ii") is considered an adverse heritage impact since it results in the removal of original heritage fabric which has design/physical value. Should the building be removed, the following mitigation measures are recommended: • Submission of a Documentation Report which includes: November2022, updotedJanuary2024 MHBC 14 Page 212 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener o Photographic descriptions and photo maps of the property and the various sections of the building. Further mitigation has also taken place, and a Documentation, Salvage, and Commemoration Plan has been submitted to the City of Kitchener in 2023. No further mitigation recommendations are necessary.

In Section 2 The Planning Act outlines 18 spheres of provincial interest which must be considered by appropriate authorities in the planning process. One of the intentions of The Planning Act is to "encourage the co-operation and co-ordination among the various interests. Regarding Cultural Heritage, Subsection 2(d) of the Act provides that: The Minister, the council of municipality, a local board, a planning board and the Municipal Board, in carrying out their responsibilities under this Act, shall have regard to, among other matters, matters ofprovincial interest such as... (d) the conservation of features of significant architectural, cultural, historical, archaeological or scientific interest; In support of the provincial interest identified in Subsection 2 (d) of the Planning Act, and as provided for in Section 3, the Province has refined policy guidance for land use planning and development matters in the Provincial Policy Statement, 2020 (PPS). The PPS is "intended to be read in its entirety and the relevant policy areas are to be applied in each situation". This provides a weighting and balancing of issues within the planning process. When addressing cultural heritage planning, the PPS provides for the following: 2.6.1 Significant built heritage resources and significant cultural heritage landscapes shall be conserved. 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. Significant: e) in regard to cultural heritage and archaeology, resources that have been determined to have cultural heritage value or interest. Processes and criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest are November2022, updGtedJanuary2024 MHBC 111 Page 219 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener established by the Province under the authority of the Ontario Heritage Act. Built heritage resource: means a building, structure, monument, installation or any manufactured or constructed part or remnant that contributes to a property's cultural heritage value or interest as identified by a community, including on Indigenous community. Built heritage resources are located on property that may be designated under Parts IV or V of the Ontario Heritage Act, or that may be included on local, provincial, federal and/or international registers. 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 Indigenous community. The area may include features such as buildings, structures, spaces, views, archaeological sites or natural elements that are valued together for their interrelationship, meaning or association. Cultural heritage landscapes may be properties that have been determined to have cultural heritage value or interest under the Ontario Heritage Act, or have been included on federal and/or international registers, and/or protected through official plan, zoning by-law, or other land use planning mechanisms. Conserved: means the identification, protection, management and use of built heritage resources, cultural heritage landscapes and archaeological resources in a manner that ensures their cultural heritage value or interest is retained under the Ontario Heritage Act. This may be achieved by the implementation of recommendations set out in a conservation plan, archaeological assessment, and/or heritage impact assessment. Mitigative measures and/or alternative development approaches can be included in these plans and assessments. The subject lands includes property that is considered to be a non -designated property of cultural heritage value or interest under the consideration of the PPS, as the subject lands are recognized on the Municipal Heritage Register as part of the City's'listed' properties. 2.2 The Ontario Heritage Act The Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O, 1990, c.0.18 remains the guiding legislation for the conservation of significant cultural heritage resources in Ontario. This Heritage Impact Assessment has been guided by the criteria provided with Regulation 9/06 of the Ontario Heritage Act, as Amended in 2022 as per Bill 23 (Schedule 6). Ontario Regulation 9/06 outlines the mechanism for determining cultural heritage value or interest. Here, a property must meet at least 2 of 9 criteria to be considered for designation under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act.

Continuity with the past promotes creativity and cultural diversity. The region has a rich and diverse heritage, including distinctive cultures, traditions, festivals, artisans and craftspeople, landmarks, landscapes, properties, structures, burial sites, cemeteries, natural features and archaeological resources. These resources provide an important means of defining and confirming a regional identity, enhancing the quality of life of the community, supporting social development and promoting economic prosperity. The Region is committed to the conservation of its cultural heritage. This responsibility is shared with the Federal and Provincial governments, Area Municipalities, other government agencies, the private sector, property owners and the community. Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment 3.G.73 Area Municipalities will establish policies in their official plans to require the submission of a Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment in support of a proposed development that includes or is adjacent to a designated property, or includes a non- designated resource of cultural heritage value or interest listed on the Municipal Heritage Register. 3.G. 74 Where a Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment required under Policy 3.G. 73 relates to a cultural heritage resource of Regional interest, theArea Municipality will ensure that a copy of the assessment is circulated to the Region for review.

Other early settlers included Benjamin Eby, Samuel Eby, and John Brubacher. The hamlet of Berlin was incorporated in 1833. At this time, Berlin had a population of 1,000 people. By 1912, Berlin was proclaimed a City, having a population of 15,195 people. An influx of German workers came to the city in the first half of the 19th century (Uttley, 1937). The construction of the Grand Trunk Railway in 1856 increased the settlement and industrialization of the area. By the early 20th century, Berlin's urban core was dominated by a variety of factories. Berlin experienced anti -German sentiments following World War I, and as a result the City of Berlin changed its name to the City of Kitchener after'Lord Kitchener' in 1916 following a petition of over 200 businessmen (Uttley, 1937). s Jr.10! s 4W r- 17 ba -'14E: '.0— -- t� irkJ. d 44 , om ' 4'+. f Figure 5: Tremaine Map of Waterloo Township, 1861.

According to the Waterloo Generations website, Theodore Adam'Ted' Witzel was born in 1875 and initiated a manufacturing company in 1906 in Berlin (now Kitchener) making ball-point pens. His company became the Onward Manufacturing Company by 1908 and expanded the range of manufactured products to include hardware and home appliances (such as steam cookers, sliding furniture shoes, and suitcase hardware). According to the history of the Onward Manufacturing Company (available on the Onward Manufacturing Company website), the company became the first in Canada to manufacture the Onward and Triumph brand vacuums. T.A. Witzel obtained exclusive rights to sell the Eureka Vacuum cleaner in 1909 and retail stores were developed across Canada. During the Second World War, the company shifted production from housewares to manufacture arms and ammunition. After the war, the company expanded again to include barbeques and developed brands such as Broil King and Stirling (Waterloo Generations). According to the 1911 census, Theodore Witzel is listed as a manufacturer of German descent (born in the U.S.A.), residing with his wife Carrie and daughter Hellen at 53 Roy Street (See Figure 8).

In 1784, the Haldimand Tract was granted to Six Nations by the British in recognition of their support during the American Revolution (Bloomfield 19, 2006). Over time the lands were subdivided, and in 1798 Block2 (which became Waterloo Township) was registered and a Crown Grant was drawn for Colonel Richard Beasley, a Loyalist from New York who had arrived in Canada in 1777 (McLaughlin 2007). The land was then surveyed and further subdivided. At this time, German Mennonite farmers from Pennsylvania were scouting farmland in the area. Several of them went back to Pennsylvania and returned with their families the following year to buy and settle the land (Hayes 5, 1997). 4.2 Historical Context The building located on the subject lands is noted on the Onward Manufacturing Company website as being constructed in 1914, with additions added to the east at some point between 1925 and 1947 (as per a review of Fire Insurance Plans). According to the 1908 rev. 1925 Fire Insurance Plan, the first portion of the existing building to be constructed was the northerly portion, described in this report (see Figure 16). The fire insurance plan describes the building as being a 3 storey building of brick construction. The building is noted as a 'Vacuum Cleaner Factory' owned by the 'Onward Mfg. Co.' which includes electrical power, heated by steam and fueled by coal. The Fire Insurance Plan notes that a small single storey wood frame 'auto' building or shed is located east of the building, which has since been demolished. The building is addressed as 1027 King Street East. At this time, 5 small single -detached residential buildings are located to the west. No buildings or structures are located to the east towards Ottawa Street South. The 1908 rev. 1947 Fire Insurance Plan notes that the northerly portion of the building (referred to in this report as Section 'A') remains, and that a larger building has been added to the east. The records available at the City of Kitchener Public Library are only available in black and white and the details of this map are difficult to decipher. Sections'B' and 'C' of the building appear to both have November2022, updGtedJanuary2024 MHBC 124 Page 232 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener been constructed by this date (at some point between 1925 and 1947). The Fire Insurance Plan notes that the facility is known as the 'Onward Mfg. Co., Eureka Vacuum Cleaner Co. Ltd'. Several additional buildings have been added north of the building, including single -detached residences, a soda water company, and a brass and aluminum foundry. Dwellings and small businesses have been added east of the subject lands towards Ottawa Street. According to a review of aerial photographs of the subject lands dated 1945, 1955, and 1965, the subject lands appear to have changed little during these eras. By 1945 the area was built-up with commercial, retail, and residential buildings. The tree -lined boulevard is easily distinguished to the north, along Onward Avenue. The building located at 1027 King Street East becomes more easily distinguished in the 1955 and 1965 aerial photos (See Figures 15 — 17).

This includes businesses related to the automobile industry along King Street East. One residential building is located to the south, fronting Charles Street East at 534 Charles Street East. A residential building was previously located at 542 Charles Street East, but was demolished at some point between 2016 and 2017. The building located at 1027 King Street East is set -back approximately 24 metres from the property line at King Street East. The eastern portion of the building extends all the way to the property line at Charles Street East. The western half of the building is set -back approximately 10 metres from the rear property line. A parking lot is located at the front of the lot adjacent to King Street East. No natural features or plantings are located on the property at 1027 King Street East. The rear yards of 534 Charles Street East appears to have formerly included open landscaped space associated with the residential dwelling. 4.3 Description of Built Heritage Resources The building located at 1027 King Street East is comprised of six different parts referred to in this report as Sections'A','B (i)','B (ii),'C','D', and 'E'.

November2022, updGtedJanuary2024 MHBC 139 Page 247 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener 5.2 1027 King Street East The property located at 1027 King Street East can be described as a roughly rectangular -shaped lot with frontage on King Street East and frontage on Charles Street East. The property contains an industrial building which is comprised of different sections, described in this report as'A', B','C', and 'D'. The building also includes a small single storey garage to the south of the industrial building described in this report as Building 'E'. Sections 'D' and 'E' were constructed in the second half of the 201h century of cinder block construction, and these structures are not of significant cultural heritage value or interest and are not included in the following sub -sections of this report. 5.2.1 Evaluation of Design/Physical Value The property located at 1027 King Street East has modest design/physical value. The original portion of the building (section 'A') can be described as a brick industrial building constructed c.1916 by Thomas A. Witzel. The building was constructed for the Onward Manufacturing Company. Additions were constructed between 1925 and 1947. Section 'A' can be described as a common industrial style building and includes architectural features (such as large windows) which are common in the Edwardian period. Views of the building from the public realm compared to the early 20th century photograph of the building demonstrate that the building has been altered and had some original building fabric removed. All windows have been altered or replaced and the exterior has been parged and painted. Section 'B' of the structure was constructed in the Art Deco style and includes features indicative of this period. This includes multiple windows and geometric shapes, as well as a portico and display area at the main entrance. Some elements of Section 'B' remain, but have been altered. Section 'C'was constructed at some point between 1925 and 1947 and likely housed the 'Eureka' Vacuum manufacturing shops. All windows at the north elevation have been replaced and the entire building has been painted. All industrial -style windows with multiple lights along the east facade have been parged over. Only Section 'B' may be considered representative of the Art Deco style of architecture as the majority of its attributes remain. The building is not considered early, rare, and does not display a high degree of craftsmanship or artistic merit. It is important to note that a visual inspection of Building 'A' shows evidence of considerable damage as the result of a fire which occurred at an unknown date. It is unknown whether or not the extent of these damages affects the structural stability of the building and how this has an impact on potential retention of the building. 5.2.2 Evaluation of Historical or Associative Value The building located at 1027 King Street East has cultural heritage value primarily vested in its historic use as the Onward Manufacturing Co. facility from 1916 to the 1980s. The building is also November2022, updGtedJanuary2024 MHBC 140 Page 248 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener associated with Theodore A. Witzel and family as owners and managers. The company was known for manufacturing and selling vacuums under the brand names Eureka and Triumph. The company manufactured ammunition for the Second World War, and went on to expand business to include barbeques, now known as Broil King and Stirling. The property is not likely to have the potential to yield further information that contributes to the community. The architect or builder is unknown. 5.2.3 Evaluation of Contextual Value The property located at 1027 King Street East has limited contextual value. The building remains in its original location in-situ and does not demonstrate a significant functional or physical connection to the subject lands or the surrounding landscape. The existing building at 1027 King Street East terminates a view at the intersection of King Street East Onward Avenue (i.e. looking south from Onward Avenue towards the front facade of the building.) While this view remains available, the front facade of the building and front yard amenity area has been considerably altered. The photograph of the building dated to the early 19th century demonstrates the building originally included a fenced -in open landscaped area to the north fronting King Street. This would have provided a complementary setting for the building and has since been removed and replaced with a parking lot. The City of Kitchener Statement of Significance for the property at 1027 King Street East (See Appendix B) identifies that'The original building is located directly across from Onward Avenue resulting in a clear view down Onward Avenue towards the front facade of the original building. It is clear that the original architect and builder considered the importance of siting the building directly across from Onward Avenue." 5.2.4 Heritage Attributes Section 'A': • 3 storey scale and massing with original brick construction and flat roof; The existing windows at all elevations are not considered to be heritage attributes as they have been altered or replaced. Section 'B': • 3 storey massing with multiple -light windows spanning the second and third storeys; • Geometric details and roof shape near the roofline which is indicative of the Art Deco architectural style; • Large glass showroom at ground level; • Gold and glass retail storefront and main entrance; November2022, updGtedJanuary2024 MHBC 141 Page 249 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener While the existing pillar and portico structure remain, they have been altered are not considered heritage attributes. Section 'C': • Single storey massing with very shallow pitched roof gable; and • Arrangement of window openings, have 2 horizontal sets of 8 bays separated by bricks within a rectangular -shaped frame. The existing windows at all elevations have not been identified as heritage attributes as they have been considerably altered or replaced. Views: • View of 1027 King Street (front facade) looking south-east along Onward Avenue. 5.6 Summary of Evaluation A summary of the evaluation of cultural heritage value as per Ontario Regulation 9/06 is provided below in chart form. While the property meets certain criteria for cultural heritage significance, the heritage value of the property is modest. The cultural heritage value of the building is vested primarily in its historical associations with the operations of the Onward Manufacturing Co. and the Witzel family.

Impacts to a cultural heritage resource may also be site specific or widespread, and may have low, moderate or high levels of physical impact. According to the Ontario Heritage Tool Kit, the following constitutes negative impacts which may result of a proposed development: • Destruction; • Alteration; • Shadows; • Isolation; • Direct or indirect obstruction; • A change in land use; and • Land disturbances. The above noted adverse impacts will be considered as it relates to the scope of this Heritage Impact Assessment. 7.2 Impacts of the Proposed Development on 1027 King Street East 7.2.1 Demolition of Section 'A' The proposed development includes the demolition of Section 'A' of the existing industrial building. This section of the building is the original location of the Onward Manufacturing Co. building constructed at some point between 1914 and 1916. The building was constructed in a vernacular industrial architectural style as a 3 storey red brick building. The evaluation of this building has concluded that the building does not demonstrate significant design/physical value and has lost its heritage integrity. Section 'A' is not considered a rare, unique, or early form of construction in Ontario. The building was constructed in a vernacular industrial style which is well represented throughout Kitchener. While the building would have been considered representative of the vernacular industrial architectural style, the considerable alterations to the building over the November2022, updatedJanuary2024 MHBC 150 Page 258 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener years have resulted in the loss of the majority of its heritage attributes. Therefore, the proposed demolition of the building is considered a negligible impact. 7.2.2 Demolition of Section 'B' (i & ii) The proposed development includes the demolition of Section'B' of the existing industrial building. This HIA concludes that Section 'B' was an addition to the original Section 'A' of the building and was constructed at some point between 1925 and 1947. The building has design/physical value for its construction in the Art Deco style of architecture. While the tower and its window arrangement has been retained, the ground floor podium has been altered. However, the majority of heritage attributes have been retained. According to the early 2011 century photo of this portion of the building, the podium included a delicate roof overhang which displayed the 'EUREKA' company name. It is important to note that the existing gold retail display window and door arrangement is also original. Section 'B' is considered a representative example of the Art Deco architectural style. Buildings in the Art Deco style are not common and there are few representative examples known in Kitchener which have been retained and conserved. Therefore, the demolition of Section 'B' is considered an adverse impact as it would result in the permanent removal of a building which has design/physical value and has retained its heritage integrity and is considered a representative example of the Art Deco architectural style employed for an industrial setting and purpose. 7.2.3. Demolition of Section 'C' The proposed development includes the demolition of Section 'C' of the existing industrial building. Section 'C' was an addition to the original portion of the building, constructed at some point between 1925 and 1947. The building appears to have been constructed as a single storey red brick industrial vernacular building, previously having multiple -light windows along the entire east elevation. The existing window arrangement at the north elevation reflects the original, but has been substantially altered to the extent which it no longer communicates its original design. All original windows of the building have either been replaced (as with the north elevation) or covered -over. This portion of the building has retained its original scale and massing but is altered to the extent that it has lost much of its heritage integrity and is no longer a representative example of the vernacular industrial architectural style. The demolition of Section 'C' of the building is considered a negligible impact as it does not have significant design/physical value. 7.2.4 Alteration of Identified View The City of Kitchener Statement of Significance for the property at 1027 King Street East (See Appendix B) identifies that'The original building is located directly across from Onward Avenue resulting in a clear view down Onward Avenue towards the front facade of the original building. It November2022, updGtedJanuary2024 MHBC 151 Page 259 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener is clear that the original architect and builder considered the importance of siting the building directly across from Onward Avenue." The following provides a comparison between existing views and those which would be available should the proposed new building be constructed. Existing views along Onward Avenue are terminated by the existing building located on the subject property. While the termination of the view would change, the proposed new building continues to provide a focus at the terminus of the view. The proposed new building includes the construction of a podium which has elements of positive and negative space, as well as horizontal and vertical arrangements which have been inspired by the existing building (See Figure 60 and Appendix A). The new views along Onward Avenue would be terminated by the portion of the podium which features the "Eureka" sign and Memory Wall (See Figures 66 & 68 below).

The demolition of Section 'B' is considered an adverse impact as it is the only portion of the building which has design/physical value and has retained its heritage integrity. The building (including sections 'A', 'B', and 'C') has historical associations with the Onward Manufacturing Co. which operated from 1916 to about 1980 and Theodore A. Witzel. The building (including Sections 'A','B', and 'Q has been identified in this report as being the only feature of cultural heritage value or interest on the subject lands. The context and surrounding landscape of the building has changed considerably over the years. As demonstrated with a review of early 201h century photographs, Fire Insurance Plans, and aerial photographs, the setting and context has changed and evolved over the years. The existing building appears to have been the only factory located on the block surrounded by King Street East, Ottawa Street South, Charles Street East, and Borden Ave up until approximately the 1940s/1 950s era. The block slowly began to develop with additional single detached residences, factories/industrial buildings, and other retail/service/commercial buildings usually associated with the automotive industry. The early 201h century photograph of the building depicting Sections 'A','B', and 'C' demonstrate that the north portion of the lot fronting King Street included landscaped open space surrounded by a fence. The demolition of the building is not anticipated to result in adverse impacts to the existing context and setting. The building has also been identified as part of the Onward Avenue potential Cultural Heritage Landscape' as an example of a 1920s era neighbourhood subdivision designed to co -exist with the automobile. The character defining features of the landscape are listed as including the boulevard along Onward Avenue and Crescent Avenue, curved and linear streets, mature trees, and residential and institutional buildings (including those of the Arts and Crafts style). The Onward Manufacturing Co. building is not specifically identified as a heritage attribute or character defining feature of the landscape. However, the existing building provides a termination to the view when looking south along Onward Avenue. The City of Kitchener CHL Study suggests that the placement of the building implies an intent to create the terminus of a view. The new building will not change any features of the Onward neighbourhood or the street. Instead, it will change the terminus of the view which is currently available. This is considered a negligible impact, provided that any new building continue to provide a view terminus. 1 City Staff have confirmed that the boundary of the Onward Avenue CHL are likely to be revised, and may result in the exclusion of the subject property.

They have been listed in order from least to greatest impact on cultural heritage resources. 8.1.1 Do nothing This option would result in the continued vacancy of the majority of the subject lands and would retain the existing structures located along King Street and Charles Street East, including that of the various 'listed' properties on the subject lands. This option would preclude the redevelopment of the property. 8.1.2 Develop the site while retaining all buildings This option results in the retention of all portions of the building located at 1027 King Street East. As this Heritage Impact Assessment has demonstrated that the demolition of Sections'A' and 'C' is considered a neutral impact, the retention of these portions of the building is not necessary. The demolition of Section 'B' of the building would constitute an adverse impact as it would result in the demolition of a portion of the building which has design/physical value. The option to retain all of the building located at 1027 King Street East is not recommended as it would not contribute to a greater understanding of the community. Retaining portions of the building which have lost their original heritage attributes and heritage integrity would not result in good conservation best practices. 8.1.3 Develop the site while retaining a portion of the buildings This option would result in demolishing portions of the existing building and retaining others for the purpose of retention and conservation over the long-term. This Heritage Impact Assessment has demonstrated that Section 'B' is the only portion of the existing building which has retained its November2022, updotedJanuary2024 MHBC 154 Page 262 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener heritage integrity. This option would include the demolition of sections Wand 'C' while retaining and appropriately restoring Section 'B'to its original design quality. This option would result in the abilityto proceed with redevelopment while retaining a portion of the existing building.This would also allow for the retention of a design feature which would complement views of the property looking south along Onward Avenue. If this development alternative is selected, it is recommended that the building be appropriately conserved and restored so that original attributes remain. This alternative would result in less impacts to cultural heritage resources given that the portion of the site with its cultural heritage integrity intact could be restored. In order to determine whether or not this alternative was a viable option, a structural assessment was undertaken by Strik, Baldinelli and Monix on in June 22, 2021. A copy of the structural assessment is provided in Appendix C of this report. The structural assessment provided valuable input into determining the preferred alternative going forward. The structural assessment determined that "Due to the age and materials of the tower, it would be incredibly difficult for the existing structure to comply with such [building] codes." This is primarily due to the following: a) Confirmation has been provided in the structural report that the existing tower structure relies on adjacent buildings for structural stability. The structural report states that, "...we are fairly certain that the stair tower framing is supported by the existing building at the foundation, main floor, second floor and roof level". Should this portion of the building be retained in its existing location or re -located on-site, it would need to be altered to comply with current OBC standards. The structural report identifies that "...likely large steel structural steel columns and bracing would be required." Further, that other alterations, including the temporary modification or removal of the existing stairs would also be likely. The structural report identifies that the facade of the tower may be changed after construction resulting from both temporary and permanent bracing. Therefore, the existing components of the tower would likely need to be substantially changed if the building were to be retained. b) The use of hollow clay bocks in the construction of the tower also leads to difficulty in plans for retaining the structure. The structural report identifies that the clay blocks would have been manufactured before current codes which prescribe the compressive strength of masonry units and are likely in a shape/form which is no longer manufactured. The strength of the existing masonry would have to be tested. The structural report concludes that the existing tower is not acceptable as a stand-alone structure as it does not meet key building code and structural requirements. As a result, retaining the tower, or even a portion of the facade of the tower may not be feasible or alternatively, would result in a tower which has been substantially altered.

Further mitigation has also taken place, and a Documentation, Salvage, and Commemoration Plan has been submitted to the City of Kitchener in 2023. November2022, updotedJanuory2024 MHBC 156 Page 264 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener 9. 0 Recommendations and Conclusions The building located on the subject property has historical associations with the Onward Manufacturing Co. and Theodore A. Witzel. While this is true, its historical associations are modest. While the building is associated with a business that operated throughout the 201h century, it is not unlike many manufacturing businesses in the City. Documentation and commemoration measures are incorporated into the development proposal to interpret the historical value of the site to the general public. This Heritage Impact Assessment has determined that the demolition of Sections'A' and 'C' of the building constitute a negligible impact as these portions of the building have lost their design/physical value and heritage integrity due to unsympathetic alterations. The demolition of Section 'B' is considered an adverse impact as it is the only portion of the building which has design/physical value and has retained its heritage integrity. The proposed design of the new building podium includes elements of the "Onward Axis" using positive and negative space, as well as horizontal and vertical lines. The building also includes a Memory Wall and "Eureka" sign at the King Street East frontage. Further, the interior of the building includes commemoration and elements of the original Art Deco tower will be salvaged and interpreted. The building has been identified as part of the Onward Avenue potential Cultural Heritage Landscape' as an example of a 1920s era neighbourhood subdivision designed to co -exist with the automobile. The Onward Manufacturing Co. building is not specifically identified as a heritage attribute or character defining feature of the landscape. However, views of the existing building are provided looking south-east along Onward Avenue and serve as the terminus of the view. The redevelopment of the site will result in changes to this view while ensuring that a terminus continues to be provided along Onward Avenue. The proposed design and siting are appropriate and is not anticipated to result in adverse impacts which require mitigation recommendations. Should the building be removed, the following mitigation measures are recommended: • Submission of a Documentation Report which includes: o Photographic descriptions and photo maps of the property and the various sections of the building. Z City Staff have confirmed that the boundary of the Onward Avenue CHL are likely to be revised, and may result in the exclusion of the subject property. November2022, updatedJanuary2024 MHBC 157 Page 265 of 426 Heritage Impact Assessment 1001-1051 King Street East and 530-564 Charles Street East, City of Kitchener Further mitigation has also taken place, and a Documentation, Salvage, and Commemoration Plan has been submitted to the City of Kitchener in 2023.

A copy of the Statement of Significance is attached. The subject property is also located within the Onward Avenue Neighbourhood significant cultural heritage landscape (CHL). A data sheet describing this CHL is available online — www. kitchener.ca/cu lturaIheritagelandscapes. Proposed Development The site specific HIA terms of reference was prepared in response to the pre -submission consultation meeting held on January 11, 2018 for the properties municipally addressed as 1001-1081 King Street East, 14-22 Ottawa Street South and 530-564 Charles Street East. The terms of reference was prepared based on the pre -submission consultation application, which proposed the demolition of all buildings in order to construct a multi -phased mixed use development with 12 and 18 storey residential buildings and a 3-6 storey office/retail building. HIA Requirement The City of Kitchener requires the submission of a Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) as part of a complete Planning Act application (e.g. Site Plan) for the properties municipally addressed as 1001-1081 King Street East, 14-22 Ottawa Street South and 530-564 Charles Street East. The following site specific Terms of Reference shall be used to fulfil the condition regarding completion, approval and implementation of a HIA prior to the consideration of an application made under the Planning Act. A HIA is a study to determine the impacts to known and potential cultural heritage resources within a defined area proposed for future development. The study shall include an inventory of all cultural heritage resources within and adjacent to the planning application area. The study results in a report which identifies all known cultural heritage resources, evaluates the significance of the resources, and makes recommendations toward mitigative measures that would minimize negative impacts to those resources. A Heritage Impact Assessment may be required on a property which is listed on the City's Heritage Advisory Committee Inventory; listed on the City's Municipal Heritage Register; designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, or where development is proposed adjacent to a protected heritage property. The requirement may also apply to unknown or recorded cultural heritage resources which are discovered during the development application stage or construction. 2.0 Heritage Impact Assessment Requirements It is important to recognize the need for Heritage Impact Assessments at the earliest possible stage of development or alteration. Notice will be given to the property owner and/or their representative as Page 277 of 426 early as possible. When the property is the subject of a Plan of Subdivision or Site Plan application, notice of a Heritage Impact Assessment requirement will typically be given at the pre -application meeting, followed by written notification to include specific terms of reference. The notice will inform the property owner of any known heritage resources specific to the subject property and provide guidelines to completing the Heritage Impact Assessment. The following minimum requirements will be required in a Heritage Impact Assessment: 2.1 Present owner contact information for properties proposed for development and/or site alteration. 2.2 A detailed site history to include a listing of owners from the Land Registry Office, and a history of the site use(s). 2.3 A written description of the buildings, structures and landscape features on the subject properties including: building elements, building materials, architectural and interior finishes, natural heritage elements, and landscaping. The description will also include a chronological history of the buildings' development, such as additions and demolitions. The attached Statement of Significance for 1027 King Street East outlines the cultural heritage value and interest as well as an initial list of heritage attributes. In addition, the Kitchener Cultural Heritage Landscape Study describes the Onward Avenue Neighbourhood cultural heritage landscape along with its cultural heritage value and heritage attributes. The report shall consider the cultural heritage value and heritage attributes in its evaluation of development options and the recommended appropriate level of conservation. 2.4 Documentation of the subject properties to include: current photographs of each elevation of the buildings, photographs of identified heritage attributes and a site plan drawn at an appropriate scale to understand the context of the buildings and site details. Documentation shall also include where available, current floor plans, and historical photos, drawings or other available and relevant archival material. 2.5 An outline of the proposed development, its context, and how it will impact the properties (buildings, structures, and site details including landscaping). In particular, the potential visual and physical impact of the proposed development on the identified heritage attributes of the properties shall be assessed. The Heritage Impact Assessment must consider potential negative impacts as identified in the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport's Ontario Heritage Tool Kit. Negative impacts may include but are not limited to: alterations that are not sympathetic or compatible with the cultural heritage resource; demolition of all or part of a cultural heritage resource; etc. The outline should also address the influence and potential impact of the development on the setting and character of the subject properties. In particular, the report shall consider the visual relationship between the Onward Avenue Neighbourhood significant cultural heritage landscape and the listed property at 1027 King Street East, including views down Onward terminating at the original building. Page 278 of 426 2.6 Options shall be provided that explain how the cultural heritage resources may be conserved, relating to their level of importance. Methods of mitigation may include, but are not limited to preservation/conservation in situ, adaptive re -use, relocation, commemoration and/or documentation. Each mitigative measure should create a sympathetic context for the heritage resource. In particular, the report should consider an option with full retention of the original circa 1914 Industrial Vernacular building and the 1946 Art Deco influenced addition. 2.7 A summary of the heritage conservation principles and how they will be used must be included. Conservation principles may be found in online publications such as: the Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada (Parks Canada); Eight Guiding Principles in the Conservation of Built Heritage Properties (Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport); and, the Ontario Heritage Tool Kit (Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport). 2.8 Proposed alterations and demolitions must be justified and explained as to any loss of cultural heritage value and impact on the streetscape/neighbourhood context. Since the preferred proposal is to demolish all existing buildings, the report must evaluate whether demolition is an acceptable level of conservation, and if so, clearly explain why demolition is acceptable based on heritage conservation principles (see 2.7 above). 2.9 Recommendations shall be as specific as possible, describing and illustrating locations, elevations, materials, landscaping, etc. 2.10 The qualifications and background of the person(s) completing the Heritage Impact Assessment shall be included in the report. The author(s) must demonstrate a level of professional understanding and competence in the heritage conservation field of study. The report will also include a reference for any literature cited, and a list of people contacted during the study and referenced in the report. 3.0 Summary Statement and Conservation Recommendations The summary statement should provide a full description of: ■ The significance and heritage attributes of the subject properties. ■ The identification of any impact the proposed development will have on the heritage attributes of the subject properties. Based on recent proposals, negative impacts may include changes to the context, partial demolition and/or full demolition. ■ An explanation of what conservation or mitigative measures, or alternative development, or site alteration approaches are recommended. ■ Clarification as to why specific conservation or mitigative measures, or alternative development or site alteration approaches are not appropriate. 4.0 Mandatory Recommendation Page 279 of 426 The consultant must write a recommendation as to whether the subject properties are worthy of listing or designation under the Ontario Heritage Act. Should the consultant not support heritage designation then it must be clearly stated as to why the subject property does not meet the criteria as stated in Regulation 9/06. The following questions must be answered in the mandatory recommendation of the report: 1. The City has already confirmed that 1027 King Street East meets the City of Kitchener's criteria for listing on the Municipal Heritage Register as a Non -Designated Property of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest. 2. Do the properties meet the criteria for heritage designation under Ontario Regulation 9/06 of the Ontario Heritage Act? Why or why not? 3. If the subject properties do not meet the criteria for designation then it must be clearly stated as to why they do not. 4. Regardless of the failure to meet criteria for heritage listing or designation, do the properties warrant conservation as per the definition in the Provincial Policy Statement? Why or why not? 5.0 Approval Process Three (3) hard copies of the Heritage Impact Assessment and one electronic pdf format burned on CD shall be provided to Heritage Planning staff. Both the hard and electronic copies shall be marked with a "DRAFT" watermark background. The Heritage Impact Assessment will be reviewed by City staff to determine whether all requirements have been met and to review the preferred option(s). Following the review of the Heritage Impact Assessment by City staff, three (3) hard copies and one electronic copy of the final Heritage Impact Assessment ("DRAFT" watermark removed) will be required. The copies of the final Heritage Impact Assessment will be considered by the Director of Planning. Note that Heritage Impact Assessments 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 the City's Heritage Kitchener Committee has been provided an opportunity to review and provide feedback to City staff. Heritage Impact Assessments may be subject to a peer review to be conducted by a qualified heritage consultant at the expense of the City of Kitchener. The applicant will be notified of Staff's comments and acceptance, or rejection of the report. An accepted Heritage Impact Assessment will become part of the further processing of a development application under the direction of the Planning Division. The recommendations within the final approved version of the Heritage Impact Assessment may be incorporated into development related legal agreements between the City and the proponent at the discretion of the municipality. The applicant is encouraged to submit the report to Heritage Planning staff for review prior to submission of a complete Planning Act (e.g. Site Plan) application in order to prevent delays that may result due to insufficient review time and the need to consult the City's Heritage Kitchener committee. City of Kitchener Community Services Department - Planning Division Page 280 of 426 Conservation Plan - Terms of Reference I ntrnrh irtinn The following Terms of Reference shall be used to fulfill the condition regarding completion and approval of a Conservation Plan prior to the consideration of an application made under the Planning Act. The Conservation Plan shall address how the cultural heritage resources and attributes as identified and described in an approved Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA), will be conserved. A Conservation Plan is a document which identifies the conservation principles appropriate for the type of cultural heritage resource/attributes being conserved; provides detailed documentation of the resource and its heritage attributes; includes an assessment of current conditions and deficiencies; and recommends conservation measures and interventions in the short, medium and long term to ensure preservation of the property's cultural heritage significance. Policy Context 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. Policy 2.6.1 of the Provincial Policy Statement requires that significant built heritage resources and significant cultural heritage landscapes shall be conserved. The Provincial Policy Statement defines a built heritage resource as including resources listed by local jurisdictions. Significant is defined as resources that are valued 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. Conserved is defined as meaning the identification, protection, management and use of built heritage resources, cultural heritage landscapes and archaeological resources in a manner that ensures their cultural heritage value or interest is retained under the Ontario Heritage Act. This may be achieved by the implementation of recommendations set out in a conservation plan, archaeological assessment, and/or heritage impact assessment. Mitigative measures and/or alternative development approaches can be included in these plans and assessments. Conservation Plan Requirements • Present owner contact information for property proposed for development and/or alteration. • Identification of all cultural heritage resource(s) and a clear statement of their cultural heritage value and interest, including a bullet point list of their heritage attributes. • Identification of the conservation principles and guidelines to be applied for the type of heritage resource/attributes being conserved and the specific conservation work to be undertaken in order to repair, maintain and protect the heritage resources and attributes. These conservation principles and guidelines may be found in publications such as: Parks Canada — Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada; Eight Guiding Principles in the Conservation of Page 281 of 426 Building Heritage Properties, Ontario Ministry of Culture; and, the Ontario Ministry of Culture's Ontario Heritage Tool Kit (all available online). • An assessment of the current condition of the cultural heritage resources and their heritage attributes. The Conservation Plan must identify the physical condition and integrity of the cultural heritage resources and their heritage attributes, with a view toward making recommendations regarding appropriate repair and maintenance, in keeping with good conservation practice. • Identification of the short, medium and long term vision for the conservation of the heritage resources, and of the specific conservation measures to be undertaken in the short, medium, and long-term. Such measures shall describe the documentation, stabilization, repair, monitoring and maintenance strategies required to be undertaken for each phase, and shall reference the qualifications for anyone responsible for undertaking such work. This section may include, but is not be limited to, the following: Short -Term Conservation Work • Documentation (through detailed description and photographs) of heritage attributes proposed to be demolished, removed, salvaged or otherwise irreversibly damaged. • Description and specifications for work required to be undertaken to conserve heritage attributes in need of immediate repair and stabilization to prevent further deterioration, damage and the potential loss of such attributes. • monitoring strategy to protect the property from vandalism or fire (e.g. methodology for monitoring; frequency of monitoring; and process to address issues that arise through monitoring). Medium -Term Conservation Work • Description and specifications for work required to be undertaken to heritage attributes as part of the proposed development and/or rehabilitation (to include demolition, removal and salvage of heritage attributes; the stabilization, repair and cleaning of heritage attributes; and the reconstruction or replacement of heritage attributes). Such work may be divided into phases. Page 282 of 426 Long -Term Conservation Work • Identification of a monitoring program addressing appropriate measures for the ongoing maintenance of the heritage resources and attributes, post development/rehabilitation. • Provide a recommended schedule for conservation work, inspections, monitoring, maintenances and phases (short, medium, and long-term). • The Conservation Plan must include a cost estimate of the conservation work to be undertaken in the short-term to heritage attributes in need of immediate repair and stabilization to prevent further damage and deterioration. Such cost estimate must be prepared by a qualified individual or consultant. In order to ensure implementation of the Conservation Plan, the City may require the owner to post a Letter of Credit equal to the value of the short-term conservation work as a condition of the approval of the subject application. • The qualifications and background of the person(s) completing the Conservation Plan shall be included in the report. The author(s) must demonstrate a level of professional understanding and competence in the field of heritage conservation. The report will also include a reference for any literature cited, and a list of people contacted during the study and referenced in the report. Approval Process Five hard copies of the Conservation Plan and one electronic pdf format burned on disk shall be provided to Heritage Planning staff. Both the hard and electronic copies will be marked with a DRAFT watermark. The Conservation Plan will be reviewed by Heritage Planning staff and a recommendation will be made to the Director of Planning. Approval of the Conservation Plan by the Director of Planning is required prior to issuance of approval of the application. Approval of the Conservation Plan may result in the establishment of development related legal agreements or conditions of development approval.

T� Page 283 of 426 Condition: Good Description of Historic Place 1027 King Street East was originally a two storey early 20th century building built in the Industrial Vernacular architectural style. Various additions and modifications have occurred to the building resulting in no single distinct architectural style. One interesting addition was the construction of a central tower addition, which is influenced by the Art Deco architectural style. The building is situated on a 0.76 acre parcel of land located on the south side of King Street East between Borden Avenue and Ottawa Street in the King East Planning Community of the City of Kitchener within the Region of Waterloo. The principal resource that contributes to the heritage value is the original building and Art Deco addition. Heritage Value 1027 King Street East is recognized for its contextual, historical and associative values. The original building is representative of industrial vernacular architecture. The building is three bays wide by six bays deep. Three bays face both King Street East and Charles Street East. The main fagade is King Street East. The building features: brick construction; brick pilasters; large window openings; and, concrete headers and sills. The contextual value relates to the buildings location and design. The fagade of the original building is parallel to King Street East and is perpendicular to Onward Avenue. The original building is located directly across from Onward Avenue resulting in a clear view down Onward Avenue towards the front fagade of the original building. It is clear that the original architect and builder considered the importance of siting the building directly across from Onward Avenue. The historic and associative values relate to the original owner and use of the building as well as the architect of the 1946 addition. The original owner was Theodore Adam Witzel of the Onward Manufacturing Company Limited. In 1906, Mr. Witzel's company became the first in Canada to manufacture and sell hand vacuum sweepers and electric vacuum cleaners under the trade names of Onward and Triumph. The company was renamed Onward Manufacturing Company Limited in 1908. In 1908 a second company, The Eureka Vacuum Cleaner Company, was established. The vacuums were manufactured in the US while the Onward Manufacturing Company Limited focused on product distribution throughout Canada. The plant opened at 1027 King Street East, Kitchener, in 1914. The Eureka and Onward companies were amalgamated under the name Onward Manufacturing Company Limited in 1924. After the war, the company expanded to manufacture cabinet and utility hardware in 1946. Mr. Witzel died in 1948 and his son Theodore Andrew Witzel Senior (1918-1995) became the President. The company continued to grow between 1949 and 1960 with the introduction of home appliance distribution. In 1966, National Union Electric Corporation of Stamford, Connecticut purchased 80% of the Eureka vacuum cleaner and appliance distribution division as well as the name Onward Manufacturing Company Limited. T.A. Witzel, Sr. remained President of Onward Manufacturing Limited until his resignation in 1974. He retained ownership and was President of Onward Hardware Limited for the manufacturing and selling of cabinet and general hardware and developed another Company he owned known as Tawco Limited for commercial cleaning equipment distribution and franchising coin operated laundry and dry cleaning stores. Vernon's Directory records suggest that the business operated at 1027 King Street East for approximately 67 years until 1981. Around that time, Onward Hardware began to manufacture fireplace inserts and charcoal water smokers and an appliance retail division (now known as T.A. Appliance Warehouse) was established at 932 Victoria Street North, Kitchener. T.A. Witzel Senior passed away in 1995 and the company is now owned and operated by his three sons. The company Page 284 of 426 was divided into three separate companies in 2000. The barbecue division adopted the original name "Onward Manufacturing Company Limited", the hardware division became "Onward Cluthe Hardware Products Inc.", and the appliance division became "TA Appliance Inc." All three companies continue to operate. The architects of the 1946 addition to the building at 1027 King Street East were William Stuart Jenkins and Sherman W. Wright. Jenkins and Wright were best known for their designs of municipal arena complexes in several Ontario towns and for the restoration in 1952 of `Woodside' the home of William Lyon Mackenzie King. Jenkins and Wright were the architects for the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium. Heritage Attributes The heritage value of 1027 King Street East resides in the following heritage attributes: All elements related to the construction and Industrial Vernacular architectural style of the building, including: o Roof and roofline; o Large window openings, including concrete headers and sills; and, o Brick construction, including brick pilasters; ■ All elements related to the context, including the relationship of the original building to King Street and Onward Avenue.

It is our understanding that you are inquiring about the possibility of demolishing the rest of the building and leaving the front stair tower as a stand-alone structure. Please accept this letter as a summary of our observations, recommendations, and conclusions. Our review was a non-invasive visual inspection of the interior and exterior of the front stair tower. The exterior was reviewed from the ground level and the roof of the main building only. We have not performed any detailed calculations or destructive investigations unless specifically noted. OBSERVATIONS 1. Based on the methods of construction and the condition of the building, the building appears to be approximately 90 to 100 years old. The front stair tower is likely connected to adjacent structures on three sides with an approximate building area (footprint) of 13,900 sq.ft. The adjacent buildings vary in height but are 2 to 2.5 storeys high. The building was reportedly constructed in phases. 2. A previous inspection by SBM of the building on the right of the stair tower revealed signs of fire damage and deterioration to some of the main structural timber beams. 3. The stair tower was site measured to be approximately 13'-9" wide x 11'-10" deep x 41'-3" high. There appears to be an 8'-10" high attic space over the stair tower. 4. The total percentage of openings in the front elevation is approximately 43%. The front door/window glazing extends the full width of the tower main floor, leaving no available shear walls. The window glazing at the second and third floor is centred in the wall and is approximately 54% of the wall length, leaving only approximately 3'-3" of available shear wall each side of the window. 5. The exterior walls were measured at the second -floor exterior door opening to be approximately 13.5" thick. A %" cementitious parging was locally removed from the interior face of the stair tower to expose a clay brick or block, approximately 8" high. A small hole in the brick indicates the clay block is hollow. 6. The front and sides of the stair tower are clad with a 4" thick concrete panel veneer. The rear elevation has a brick veneer. The concrete panel veneer has localized areas of minor spalling throughout. The concrete veneer is painted. The paint is in poor condition. Strik, Baldinelli, Moniz Ltd. Page 289 of 426 www.sbmltd.ca SBM W-20-397 7. Based on our experience with other low-rise buildings on King Street of similar age and construction, it is likely the exterior walls are constructed of 8" hollow clay block with a 4" concrete panel or brick veneer. AFA 0 Algol Clay block wall at 936 King Street E, is likely the some material utilized to construct the stair tower at 1027 King Street E. 8. The stairs are structural steel with a concrete topping. 9. Visually, the stair tower walls appear plumb and there is little to no cracking, spalling or deterioration in the superstructure indicating that the walls are not currently overstressed. 10. The foundation wall for the stair tower is a cast -in-place concrete wall and is shared with the adjacent three structures. There is no cracking in the foundation walls or evidence of settlement. 11. The footings below the tower and balance of the building are unknown. 12. At the basement level (Car Quest basement), the foundation is a combination of old cast -in-place concrete and rubble stone foundation wall. 2 RECOMMENDAITONS My professional opinion on the tower as a stand-alone entity is as follows: 1. The existing stair tower appears to have been constructed before the Ontario Building Code was enacted into law and would have been constructed in accordance with good building practices at the time of construction. For the existing tower to be modified to a stand alone -structure it would have to be reviewed in accordance with live, snow, wind and seismic loads prescribed by the current Ontario Building Code. The masonry structure would need to be evaluated in accordance with the current masonry design code CSA 5304. Due to the age and materials of the tower, it would be incredibly difficult for the existing structure to comply with such codes. Current engineering standards and best practises have much more rigorous guidelines for earthquake design, allowable deflection tolerances, insulation, reinforcing etc 2. The clay blocks would have been manufactured before the current code prescribed the compressive strength of masonry units. Additionally, the cross section of the block is likely not a shape that is currently manufactured. A localized section of block would have to be removed and tested in accordance with CSA CAN3-A82.2 "Methods of sampling and testing brick" to determine the compressive strength of the existing material. 3. Although the existing building is covered with finishes, we are fairly certain that the stair tower framing is supported by the existing building at the foundation, main floor, second floor and roof level. 4. Given the scope of the site visit, we are uncertain if the concrete panel or brick veneer is supported at the roof level or if the veneer is full height and extends below the roof. The cladding on the sides and rear of the stair 2 Page 290 of 426 www.sbmltd.ca SBM W-20-397 tower below the roof level of the adjacent building should be confirmed before decisions are made to ensure there is cladding present and that the cladding matches the visible cladding above the roof. 5. We have not completed a detailed structural analysis, but a review of CSA 5304 Annex F Empirical Design indicates that the existing tower is not acceptable as a stand-alone structure as it does not meet the following requirements: a. The tower walls require minimum 85% of the wall to remain in order to adequately resist wind loading (to just pick one of many design criteria). The large opening in the front elevation of the tower is approximately 55% of the wall length. b. Also shear wall segments must be minimum 10'-0" long. c. Due to the openings in the front elevation, the front wall does not have an adequate shear wall resulting in the tower being analyzed as a 3 -sided structure. Empirically, the masonry code requires a minimum of 2 noncolinear walls. 3 CONCLUSIONS Due to the age of the building and the fair condition of the structural elements of the existing stair tower, the tower appears structurally adequate to remain in service in the existing capacity while supported by the existing adjacent buildings. Although we have not completed a detailed structural analysis, based on our experience with the inspections of old masonry structures, the analysis and/or design of similar structures, and the number of empirical code requirements that are violated, it is our opinion that the tower is likely not structurally adequate to act as a stand-alone structure without significant reinforcing. Due to the historic nature of the existing building materials, no reinforcing will be able to match the existing construction; likely large structural steel columns and bracing would be required. Construction of the permanent reinforcing will likely require modification or temporary removal of the existing stairs. Construction of the temporary support during construction and construction of the permanent reinforcing required will be extremely difficult and could potentially damage the existing structure. The fagade of the tower may be changed after construction resulting from the connections of the temporary and permanent bracing. From a cost, constructability, and construction safety standpoint, it is our opinion that it is better to carefully remove the tower finishes and reconstruct the tower using modern materials and construction practices.

308 of 426 1027 King Street E., Kitchener ON Executive Summary MHBC was retained by Vive Development to complete a Cultural Heritage Documentation, Salvage, and Commemoration Report as per the request by City of Kitchener Cultural Heritage Planning staff as it relates to the subject property located at 1027 King Street East. The Subject property listed on the City of Kitchener Heritage Register or formally designated under the Ontario Heritage Act The purpose of this Report is to describe the subject property and its features in order to supplement the historic record, as per the recommendation provided in the Heritage Impact Assessment for the subject lands completed by MHBC (dated November, 2021; updated in 2022 as well as 2024). This Report also identifies any features of the subject property which may be good candidates for salvage and re -use, as opposed to being deposited as landfill. Summary of Recommendations The contents of this report includes photographs and measured drawings which supplement the historic record and are considered appropriate in terms of documentation of the site. The following provides a list of items recommended for salvage, where possible depending on condition and extraction capabilities: • "Eureka" Terazzo Tile (Section B, ground floor); • Exterior column (Section B, exterior north elevation); • Door/window/frame and cornices (Section B, exterior north elevation); and • Exterior cladding (Section B, exterior front elevation. These items are recommended for salvage and re -use on-site as part of an interior display as per the description and rendering provided in this report. Provided that the recommendations provided in this report are undertaken, the documentation, salvage, and commemoration/interpretation of the site is considered satisfactory and complete.

This report was updated in 2022 and 2024. The purpose of the HIA was a) to evaluate whether or not the property at 1027 King Street East met the legislated criteria for determining Cultural Heritage Value or Interest (CHVI) and b) determine whether or not Page 6 of 33 Page 312 of 426 1027 King Street E., Kitchener ON the proposed development results in adverse impacts to cultural heritage resources. The HIA ultimately concluded that only one component of the building has Cultural Heritage Value or Interest, that being the Art Deco style tower (noted in this report as Section ""B ii'). The removal of the building was identified as a negligible impact given that the building overall has been unsympathetically altered and no longer communicates its original design. The exception tot his is the removal of the Art Deco Tower, which was identified as an adverse impact. The HIA provided mitigation recommendations as a result of the removal of the building, including the following: • Submission of a Documentation Report which includes photographic descriptions and photo maps of the property and the various sections of the building. The HIA also noted that the proposed development includes appropriate salvage and commemoration. 1.4 Terms of Reference This report has been drafted as per the terms of reference for Documentation and Salvage Reports for the City of Kitchener (See Appendix C). As such, this report contains the following information: • Introduction; • Salvage and Documentation; • Context and Property Description • Documentation of the site; • Salvage Plan (including an inventory); • Methodology; • Reuse Recommendations; and • Qualifications.

Only Section 'A' includes a basement. It is important to note that the floors of Sections 'A', 'B' and 'C' do not match -up. Section 'C' appears to have originally been accessed by Section 'B'. Section 'B' of the building (ground floor portion running north -south towards Charles Street) appears to be part of Section 'C'. Section "A'— Basement The basement of Section 'A' is currently used as a staff room and storage. The basement includes remnants of original heating/cooling components such as the boiler and coal oven. A ramp is provided in the basement of Section 'A' providing access to Section 'C'.

Items can be salvaged for a range of purposes. In order to provide clarification regarding the items chosen for salvage, the following provides a criteria for items as it relates to a) their cultural heritage value, and b) their intended purpose. These recommendations include three separate categories of salvaged items as follows: A. Heritage Value - Items which are determined to be of significant cultural heritage value and should be retained for purposes related to commemoration/interpretation; and • The item/materia//element has design1physical value as being either rare, unique, or representative of a style, expression, or construction method, • Element or feature displays a high degree of craftsmanship, artistic merit, or scientific achievement, • Is a featur%lement or sample of a featur%lement which may form a part of the commemoration of the structures or properties. B. Modest Heritage Value - Items which are representative of an architectural style or period, which would be best suited for re -use in the same or similar capacity; • Does not demonstrate significant cultural heritage value • The item/material/element is of a fair/good condition which may be reasonably extracted for re -use; • The item/material element is not significant in relation to the future commemoration/interpretation of the house. C. No Heritage Value - Items which do not have design/physical value or are not associated with a style of architecture or period, but could be salvaged and made available for re -use as opposed to being deposited as landfill. Page 17 of 33 Page 323 of 426 1027 King Street E., Kitchener ON 3.2 Salvage Recommendations The following provides a list of items which are proposed to be salvaged. The following list indicates the category and criteria Item Quantity Category Location Interior (Section Eureka Terazzo Tile 1 A B) Ground floor Exterior Column 1 B Exterior (front, Section B) Door/Window Entry 1 B Exterior (front, Frame and Cornice Section B) Exterior Cladding (selection in Exterior (front, concrete) cogd tion) ood B Section B) Photo The items noted above are considered good candidates for salvage in terms of their ability to be used for commemoration/interpretation purposes on-site. Note that the use of these items is contingent on a) their condition, and b) successful extraction. No other features on-site are considered of cultural heritage value and/or good candidates for salvage on-site. Sections ""A" and ""B" have been vacant for several years and do not contain other notable features which would be considered elements for potential salvage as opposed to being deposited as landfill. While Section ""C is not currently vacant (at the time of writing this document), there are likely to be few materials of value which could be salvaged and donated to the public. However, where there are opportunities to salvage materials and donating them to the general public, this is Page 18 of 33 Page 324 of 426 1027 King Street E., Kitchener ON supported as a general recommendation in order to deter construction & demolition materials as being deposited as landfill. Items proposed for salvage will be removed with hand tools. Large construction equipment will not be used in order to avoid damage to these items. The items will be stored indoors off-site. All items will be wrapped with tarps and are recommended to be stored off the ground on wood pallets.

This includes the use of items recommended for salvage in Section 4.2 of this report. 4.2 Commemoration Recommendation Summary The site is recommended to be interpreted through an interior display of the proposed new building (See Figure 28). The items recommended to be salvaged in this report (See Section 4.2) includes the column, door and windows (including trim), and the "Eureka" tile. If exterior cornice materials can be removed, these would be displayed and incorporated on an interior wall.

Page 20 of 33 Page 326 of 426 1027 King Street E., Kitchener ON The proposed design includes text on the salvaged window (See Figure 28, outlined in red). The following provides the recommended text for this feature: The property on which you stand is the former location of the Onward Manufacturing Company. The Onward Manufacturing Company was started by Theodore Adam "Ted" Witzel (b. 1875). The company became the first in Canada to manufacture Onward and Triumph brand vacuums. Ted Witzel obtained exclusive rights to manufacture and sell the "Eureka "brand vacuum cleaner in 1909. The features of this display, Inclualng the "Eureka "tile were extracted from the building formerly in this location. During World War II, the Onward Manufacturing Company shifted production to manufacture arms and ammunition. After the war, the company expanded again to manufacture barbeques and developed brands such as Broil King. The transparent glass of the proposed commemorative display should also display the following photograph of the building and an image of the brand name (See Figures 29 & 30).

This includes a) an "ONWARD" timeline and commemorative feature with dates and text communicating the story of the Onward Manufacturing Company, and b) an Art Deco style mural/decorative feature to commemorate the Art deco feature of the building (Section "B') to be removed (See figures below). The art deco style feature is designed within a tall/rectangular portion of the building which is reminiscent of that of the portion to be removed and includes a series of concentric circles/geometric shapes which are indicative of art and design movements of the Art Deco period.

The proposed dates and text of the Onward timeline and commemorative feature tell the story of the Onward Manufacturing Company started by Theodore Witzel over time from 1904 to the early 20th century. The proposed text noted in Figure 33 (above) is as follows: 1904-1909; The Rite Away Pen Company, which manufactured fountain pens, is founded by Theodore Adam Witzel. At this time the company is located at 143 King Street West, Berlin (now the City of Kitchener). The company became the "Onward Manufacturing Company"" In 1908 and soon atter the company obtained exclusive rights to manufacture and sell the 'Eureka ""brand vacuum cleaner. 1914-1916; Between 1914 and 1916, the building formerly located at 1027 King Street was constructed and became the new location of the Onward Manufacturing Company. 1924-1945; Prior to WWII, the company expanded to manufacture Onward brand sliding furniture shoes, Eureka vacuum cleaners, Domestic vacuum cleaners, and Eden electric washing machines and wringing machines During the Second World War, the company shitted production from housewares to manufacture arms and ammunition. 1946-1960: Following WWII, the company expanded again to manufacture Onward brand quality cabinet hardware as well as barbeques, now known as Broil King and Stirling. Theodore Adam Witzel died in 1948. The company expanded to include other home appliances, including refrigerators by 1960. 1964; A fire occurred in the building 1027 King Street East Evidence of the fire was still present via charred roof ratters at the interior of the building prior to its demolition. 1980 - 2000; In 1980 a second location was constructed on Victoria Street in Kitchener which sold Barbecues, appliances, and fireplaces In the late 20th century, the company became known as OMC (Onward Multi -Corp Inc.). During this time, the company became associated with other barbecue brand names such as Arklamatic, Weber, BroilKing, Broil -mate, Barbecue Genius, Shepherd, and Sterling. By the early 21St century the company expanded to include other businesses under Onward Multi -Corp Inc, umbrella, including Onward Cluthe, and TA. The information above was confirmed using both primary and secondary sources and provides an accurate and informative description of the important events of the company/property over time. The timelines were grouped into date ranges in order to a) fit the story into the design at the north elevation in a way which is aesthetically pleasing, b) focus on dates which could be confirmed in the historic record and are significant/impactful to the evolution of the company over time. Page 25 of 33 Page 331 of 426 1027 King Street E., Kitchener ON 5nOCondusions Provided that the recommendations provided in this report are undertaken, we consider the documentation, salvage, and commemoration/interpretation recommendations provided in the HIA completed by MHBC (dated 2021) complete. Note that we are able to make recommendations regarding salvage of elements. However, our recommendations are contingent upon a) the condition of the materials, and b) the feasibility of their extraction. Should any materials not be able to be salvaged which are part of the planned commemoration piece, it is recommended that the commemorative display include additional images and text in order to communicate the features of the building that have been removed.
