Toronto Central Prison Chapel

The Toronto Central Prison Chapel is an 1877 former Roman Catholic prison chapel, located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The building is the last remaining building of the Toronto Central Prison complex which was located south of King Street and west of Strachan Avenue in Toronto. The other remaining portion of the prison is a wall of the prison's paint shop on the east side of the Liberty Storage Warehouse. The chapel was built by prisoners of the prison. The chapel was added to the city's list of heritage properties in 1985 and is protected from demolition, under the City of Toronto government by-law. As of 2015, the building is vacant. Its most recent use was as part of the Inglis factory complex that was situated in the area. In 2011, the prison chapel was slated to become the next location of the Miller Tavern restaurant chain, but the building remains vacant. As part of the Liberty Village development, the grounds around the building were converted to parkland, known as the Liberty Village Park.

Toronto Chinese Baptist Church

The Toronto Chinese Baptist Church is a Baptist church serving the Chinese-Canadian community of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is affiliated with Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec. History It was originally built as Beverley Street Baptist Church in 1880 as an outreach of Jarvis Street Baptist Church while the rest of the church was completed in 1886. The architects were Langley and Burke. Funding was largely donated by William McMaster and it is a designated historic building. It overlooks The Grange that is today attached to the Art Gallery of Ontario. The church is located just to the east of the heart of Toronto's Chinatown. Chinese Baptists first met in the basement of the building in 1967. Five years later the church was purchased for the Chinese community with services being held in Cantonese. Today the church offers services in Cantonese, Mandarin and English. The growing Chinese-Canadian Baptist community has also led to the East Toronto, North Toronto, Mississauga and Scarborough Chinese Baptist Churches being established in Toronto's suburbs as well as the Windsor Chinese Baptist Church. Many of these daughter churches have in turn established daughter churches of their own further into the suburbs. See also Chinese in Toronto External links Official site

Toronto Courthouse

The Toronto Courthouse is a major courthouse in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located north of Osgoode Hall on University Avenue, north of Queen Street West. It is a branch of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. The courthouse is mostly used for criminal trials, but also family law matters. Courtrooms on the main floor are used primarily for family law matters, while courtrooms located above the ground floor are primarily used for criminal matters, but, in rare cases, may be used for civil proceedings, especially where a litigant is in custody and must attend in person, or where someone may be subject to imprisonment in light of a finding of contempt, due to the civil court facilities located in other nearby buildings, such as the Canada Life Building, not having facilities to house inmates. History The site of the Toronto Courthouse was previously occupied by Thomas Fuller's Romanesque Revival style Toronto Armories, demolished in 1963 to make way for the new courthouse, considered part of the civic square project that includes Toronto City Hall and Nathan Phillips Square. Under the south wing of the building is a pedestrian mall that connects University Avenue to Nathan Phillips Square. By the 1960s, new court capacity was needed to service Metropolitan Toronto (Metro Toronto). The new courthouse was built in 1967 as the Metropolitan Toronto Courthouse. It also served as a courthouse for York County and later York Region. After 1980, it served solely as a courthouse for the district of Metro Toronto, and since 1998, the amalgamated City of Toronto district. Architecture The building was designed by architect Ronald A. Dick, who described its form as one of "dignity and convenience." The imposing structure features fin walls (walls strengthened by equally-spaced piers), a 12-sided form and an open passageway of the adjoining South Wing (completed in 1985). There is a tunnel connecting the building to nearby Osgoode Hall, although its use is restricted to staff. Two additional stories were added in 1987. It was one of the last large complexes in Ontario created with local Queenston limestone. References
Toronto District Christian High School

Toronto District Christian High School (TDChristian) is an independent Christian secondary school located in the city of Vaughan, Ontario, Canada, in the city's Woodbridge neighbourhood. It was founded in 1960 and began classes in 1963. TDCH currently has an enrollment of about 450 students. TDCH is a member of the Ontario Alliance of Christian Schools. History In the 1950s, after a relatively large wave of Dutch immigration to Ontario, several Christian elementary schools were founded in the Greater Toronto Area. Eventually, many of the members of this community began to look ahead to Christian secondary schooling. In 1960, the Toronto District Association for Christian Secondary Education was founded, and planning for a Christian high school began. In 1963 forty-nine grade nine and ten students began classes in Second Christian Reformed Church of Toronto. Eventually, a fundraising campaign raised $30,000, which was used to help buy a 15-acre (61,000 m2) site in the-then independent Town of Woodbridge; a second campaign in 1964 generated $115,000 of the $150,000 needed for a building on the site. In 1965, the school building opened, with eight classrooms and a gym, and enrolment had risen to 130 students. The school grew rapidly, beginning with expansions in 1970, 1974, and 1986, adding a library, staff room, auditorium, art room, and additional offices and classrooms. By 1991, the school was filled to its capacity of about 400 students. In 1994, Ren Siebenga became principal, and the community came together to begin what would be called "Project 2000", with a mission to expand and renew the school's facilities. From 1999 through 2003, the pre-1980s section of the building was renovated, and improvements were made to the school, including the addition of a performance centre, hallway computers, additional classrooms, a fitness centre, and additional parking lot space. Enrollment rose to roughly 450 students. Athletics TDCH's sports teams are called the Falcons, and the school colours are green, black, and white. The school is known best for its results in volleyball, but also has basketball, badminton, hockey, soccer, ultimate Frisbee, and cross country teams. TDChristian competes in the York Region Athletic Association (YRAA) and the Ontario Christian Secondary Schools Athletic Association (OCSSAA).

The Toronto Golf Club is a private golf club in Mississauga, Ontario, a suburban municipality to the west of Toronto. Established in Toronto in 1876, it is the third-oldest golf club in North America, after the Royal Montreal Golf Club and the Royal Quebec Golf Club. The Toronto Golf Club adopted its current name in 1909 and moved to its present location in 1913. The club has hosted the Canadian Open five times and the Canadian Amateur Championship nine times, more than any other club. History It originated on a parcel of land known as the Fernhill property, which was included within the city of Toronto in the 1900s. The original course was located east of Coxwell Avenue between the railway and slightly south of what is now Eastwood Road and then along a narrow area between tracks and north side of Upper Gerrard Street east to what is now Kildonan Road. In 1909, the Club obtained a new charter without share capital, and the original name of the club, "The Toronto Golf Club", was restored. The following year, it was decided to acquire a new site in Toronto Township, now Mississauga. The old course is now part of the Upper Beaches residential area. The club is now located on the banks of the Etobicoke River, and its 18-hole course was designed by the renowned English architect Harry Colt. The course was ready for play in the fall of 1912, and its clubhouse was completed in 1913. In 1919, the Club bought additional land to the north and had a new nine-hole course built which opened in 1921. George Cumming was hired in 1900, at age 21, to serve as head professional and remained in that position for 50 years. Donovan Fraser is the current Head Professional. Hired in 2024, Fraser took over from Doug Rankin, who was the Professional from 1991 to 2023. John Hunt, Professional 1959–90; Lou Cumming, Professional 1950–59; George Cumming, Professional 1900–50; Arthur Smith, Professional 1895–99.

It hosted the event twice at its original location in Toronto (1905 and 1909), and hosted the event three more times at its current location in 1914, 1921 and 1927. The Toronto Golf Club has also hosted the Canadian Amateur Championship nine times, more than any other club. The golf club played host to the tournament in 1898, 1901, 1903, 1905, 1909, 1913, 1926, 1995, and 2017.
