From the City's report regarding the inclusion of these addresses on the Heritage Registry:
"The properties at 1619-1621 Bayview Avenue have cultural heritage value for the design of the commercial building as a representative example of a “Main Street Row” identified by the two-storey scale, the glazed commercial storefront with residential or commercial units in the upper floor, and the modest classical detailing with the decorative corbelled brickwork typical of those dating to the interwar era in North Toronto and Leaside.

Contextually, the properties at 1619-1621 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 building at 1619-1621 Bayview Avenue is historically, visually and physically linked to its setting on the east side of the street where it is part of a contiguous row of commercial buildings with a shared setback in the extended block between Millwood Road and Fleming Crescent."
