From the City's report regarding the inclusion of these properties on the Heritage Registry:
"The properties at 1729 and 1739 Bayview Avenue have cultural heritage value for the design of the commercial buildings as representative examples of “Main Street Rows” identified by the two-storey scale, the glazed commercial storefronts with residential or commercial units in the upper floor, and the simplified Modernist detailing with the lack of ornamentation apart from the detailing on the window openings typical of those dating to the post-World War II era in North Toronto and Leaside.

Contextually, the properties at 1729 and 1739 Bayview Avenue are valued for the role of the commercial buildings in defining, supporting and maintaining the historical mid- rise streetscape character of the thoroughfare between Millwood Road and Eglinton Avenue East as the “Main Street” connecting the communities of North Toronto and Leaside. The buildings at 1729 and 1739 Bayview Avenue are historically, visually and physically linked to their setting on the southeast corner of Parkhurst Boulevard at the north end of the contiguous row of commercial buildings in the extended block between Fleming Crescent and Parkhurst Boulevard."
