Le monastère de style néo-gothique a été conçu par l'équipe père et fils de John et James Bowes. Vingt ans après son achèvement, le bâtiment a été agrandi par l'architecte Joseph Simeon Jude Routhier de Montréal pour créer un refuge plus grand pour les femmes et les filles. Le couvent a été reconstruit à la suite d'un incendie en 1938. Conçu par l'architecte Georges Lucien Emile Leblanc, il a conservé le style structurel et architectural d'origine. Le bâtiment a été acheté par le gouvernement de Chine en 1972.

Emmanuel Bible College

Emmanuel Bible College is an interdenominational Evangelical Christian Bible college located in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. History In response to a need for trained Christian leaders, the college was established in 1940 as a Bible school in Stouffville, Ontario by Ward M Shantz. It then shortly relocated to Gormley, Ontario. In 1943 the school was moved to downtown Kitchener, Ontario (now site of Centre In The Square on Ahrens near Queen Street) and then, in 1964, to the current location at 100 Fergus Avenue in Kitchener. In 1982 the college received its accreditation by the Association for Biblical Higher Education, following the passing of a provincial Act giving it the right to grant degrees. This accreditation expired in Feb 2023, and has not been renewed. Mission Emmanuel exists to provide training in Christian discipleship and ministry to persons of all ages through both degree programs and nonformal training that includes online courses and certificates and regularly offered workshops under the name "Refresh". The college's mission statement is: "Through academic training and hands on ministry and service, Emmanuel prepares Christ followers who are committed to making a difference in their world." Campus The campus is currently undergoing changes, and consists of three main buildings. J.H. Sherk Education Centre - named for Rev. J. Harold Sherk, a member of the college's original faculty Edna Pridham Memorial Library - named for the college's first missionary, who died while serving in Nigeria Warder Hall - named for Mrs. Maude Warder, a member of the college's original staff Originally held in the basements of the Stouffville and Gormley Mennonite Brethren in Christ Churches, Emmanuel purchased a house on Ahrens St. in Kitchener, Ontario in 1943. The college met on Ahrens St. until 1964, when it moved to its location on Fergus Ave. with a newly constructed administration building. The Faith Missionary Church building was also sold to Emmanuel around this time. Before changes to the campus began in 2018, the college also owned and used several other buildings on its Fergus Ave. property. Ward M. Shantz Chapel - named for the founding President of the college Ellis A. Lageer Administration Building - named for the college's fourth President Emmanuel Campus Centre - originally named Edgewood Hall Lehman Hall - named for an original member of the college's faculty Wideman Hall - named for the college's second President References
Empress Hotel (Toronto)

The Empress Hotel was a three-storey red-brick building at the corner of Yonge and Gould streets in downtown Toronto. It was destroyed by fire on January 3, 2011. The hotel was opened in 1888. The hotel changed hands several times. The property ceased operating as a hotel in the mid-1970s. History 335 Yonge Street housed hotels from 1888, under different owners, to sometime in the 1970s. In the 1960s, it was known as the Edison Hotel and was a major live music venue in Yonge Street's booming Rock n' Roll culture. After the building stopped functioning as a hotel portions were leased by a number of businesses. In 2010, after the property was bought by the Lalani Group, the owners started to demolish the building, only to be stopped when the Toronto city council designated it a protected heritage property on July 16, 2010. Part of the building's facade collapsed in April, 2010. Arson and demolition The building was severely damaged by fire on January 3, 2011. At the time, the owners were planning a meeting with the City of Toronto to discuss their strategy for promptly restoring the property. After the building's destruction Heritage Toronto quoted from the intent to designate application describing the building as a "local landmark", and a "well-crafted example of a late 19th century commercial building that blends elements of the popular Second Empire and Romanesque Revival styles of the era." A security camera captured an individual whose face was obscured by a hood in the vicinity of the building around the time the fire was set. After an investigation (profiled in The Detectives on CBC Television in 2018), Stewart Poirier was charged with the arson and convicted; he was sentenced to ten years in December 2012. Poirier died of natural causes on February 10, 2013, while incarcerated at the Joyceville Institution. Eventually, the site was cleared and taken over by developer Rumpf Corporation who was building a commercial property in late 2017, to be owned and managed by Prime Corporation. References
Epiphany and St. Mark, Parkdale

The Church of the Epiphany and St. Mark, Parkdale, is a small inclusive parish of the Anglican Church of Canada located in the Parkdale area of Toronto, Ontario. The church was founded upon the 1983 amalgamation of The Church of the Epiphany and The Church of St. Mark, Parkdale. History: The Church of St. Mark, Parkdale St. Mark, Parkdale was set apart as an independent parish on July 1, 1876. Prior to this the area had been part of St. Anne's parish. The first services were held on December 16, 1877 in a small frame building built on the church's present site on Cowan Avenue, below Queen Street. The lot cost $900 and the 25 ft x 15 ft building cost a further $600. The cornerstone of the current building was laid by the Bishop of Toronto on October 11, 1880. The church was opened and dedicated on January 20, 1881. As a result of significant population growth in Parkdale in the 1880s, the church grew from 40 families in 1880 to 320 in 1887 and the need for another parish was recognized. The Church of the Epiphany Construction of the Church of the Epiphany took place at the corner of Queen Street and Beaty Avenue in 1887 and the first services were held on November 18 of that year. This building is still present south of the newer sanctuary building which was erected and opened on March 31, 1911. The Church of the Epiphany had a close association with Wycliffe College. Its founding rector, Rev. Bernard Bryan, had been one of the nine men who constituted the first class at Wycliffe in 1877. This connection continued when in 1959 the Church of the Epiphany's rector, the Rev. Leslie Hunt, was appointed Principal of Wycliffe College. This connection gave the Church of the Epiphany an evangelical orientation. Amalgamation As a result of shifting demographics in Parkdale, the Executive committee of the Diocese of Toronto confirmed the amalgamation of the parishes and congregations of the Church of the Epiphany and the Church of St. Mark, Parkdale on January 27, 1983. On February 8 of that year, the amalgamated vestry voted to locate at the Church of St. Mark, Parkdale and to accept an offer from the Maronite Church to purchase the Church of the Epiphany's buildings. This church is now known as Our Lady of Lebanon.
