NOTICE of INTENTION to DESIGNATE TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Penetanguishene intends to designate the properties including lands and buildings, at the following municipal addresses as properties of an architectural and historical value or interest under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act 1974, $.0. Chapter 122. (a) 20 ROBERT STREET WEST-STE. ANN'S CHURCH -Construction began in 1886 but the building was not opened until 1902. It was a further two years before pews were added. The church was built because of the strength, determination of Rev. D.T. Laboureau. He arrived in Penetdnguishene in 1873 and from that time forth he gained enough admiration and respect that when he proposed the erection of a monumental church to honour the Canadian Martyrs, the parishioners were in full support. Once permission was granted, Father Laboureau made extensive travels through Canada and France to raise the necessary funds. The site chosen overlooks both the town and the bay and is one of the greatest landmarks which distinguishes Penetanguishene from other harbour towns. In 1909 three bells cast in France were installed in the church along with the bell from the original log church. The church, made of rough finished, cut fieldstone, rock faced granite, and rimmed with red Credit Valley stone and white Nottawasaga sandstone, follows the Romanesque style after which it was designed. Further design features which fall into the Romanesque style are the round headed windows with column supports, and the semi-circular headed windows cut from the wall in the blind archading on the east and west facades. These windows are adorned with stained glass, giving the church another unique quality. The six chimney stacks on the gable roof show a diversion from the true 11th to 13th centuries Romanesque to a more Gothic style. It has been suggested that this could be a characteristic of the 19th century Romanesque. The architect also may have wanted to convey the height, established by the front facade along the 140 foot depth of the building. (b) 14 WATER STREET In 1859, the prominent local merchant and first mayor, Alfred Andrew Thom- pson, built this house, a classic example of the Georgian Style of architecture. The Thompson family's active involvement in the politics of the municipality is indicated by their 8 years of representation in the position of mayor. The stone wall extending along the front border of the property, the two chimney stacks at the corners of the hip roof peak, the structural openings (windows, doors) and the more "ecently added verandah all support the house's symmetry which, above all else, is most important in Georgian styling. The main door with its side lights, transoin light and defining pilasters also bolster the symmetry of the house. Although the flemish bond red brick exterior is not very decorative, it does have significance in that the bricks were hand made. (c) 33 ROBERT STREET WEST The home of the prominent industrialist J.T. Payette, was built in 1918. He became the owner of the P. Payette Co. Foundry in 1914. As a shrewd businessman, his interests branched out to include lumbering and a summer hotel in addition to the foundry and machine shop. J.T. Payette was also an avid horse racing fan and built a race track between Robert St. E. and Edward St. In 1921, he was elected Mayor and served a three year term. This square, two-storey building of brick stretcher bond construction is unique and of a significant local style anc exhibits many classical revival features. The ionic columns supporting the open verandah which almost encircles the house, and the decorative corner brackets of a corinthian nature and ornamented with leaves, provide much of the classical style for the house. The belvedere at the peak of the hip roof also adds to the building's classical appearance. The front door is flanked on either side by side lights and overhead there is a transom light separated from the door and side lights by a wood entablature. The first storey windows have cut stone head surrounds and lug sills and are glazed with two panes. The upper pane is half the size of the lower pane. Another disinctive feature is the square holes left in the rear portion of the cut stone wall which supports the verandah. Built when the wall was constructed, they are thought to be storage holes for drying wood for use in the fireplace. Any person may, before the 21 day of September, 1981, send by registered mail or deliver to the Clerk of the Town of Penetanguishene, notice of his or her objection to the proposed designation, together with a statement of the reasons for the abjection and all relevant facts. If a Notice of Objection is received, the Council of the Town of Penetanguishene will refer the matter to the Conservation Review Board for a hearing and report.
