Berkeley Street Theatre
26 Berkeley Street
Toronto
St Lawrence-East Bayfront-The Islands

Year Completed:

1888

OTHER IDENTIFICATION

Alternate Name:

ConsumersÂ´ Gas Co. Station A, Engine and Condensing Houses, Toronto Free Theatre

Notes:

This property’s contribution lies in its historic role in the industrialisation of the District in the late 19th century, its historic association with the Consumers’ Gas Corporation and its contemporary association with CanStage. The structure also contributes to the physical character of the District through its materiality (red brickwork with stone detailing) and its relation to adjacent 19th century industrial structures, in particular the Consumers Gas Company purifying house (251 Front Street East).
