Albany Club
91 King Street East
Toronto
Downtown Yonge East

Year Completed:

1930

OTHER IDENTIFICATION

Notes:

This property’s contribution lies in the age of the structure (1842); its location on the original Court House Reserve of the Town of York; its historic and ongoing association with the Albany Club; and its relation to the adjacent row of 3 – 4 storey 19th century commercial warehouses, which were all designed by architect John Howard. The structure also contributes to the physical character of the District through the high quality of its Modern Classical limestone architectural features.

The Albany Club, founded in 1882, moved into the building in 1898.
