Located in the heart of Leslieville, 169 & 173 Jones Avenue transforms a cherished neighbourhood landmark into a vibrant residential community. The former St. Clements Church, designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, has been carefully restored and reimagined, allowing its historic character to remain a defining feature of the site while welcoming new residents.
The completed development includes boutique homes within the restored church along with a series of modern stacked townhomes on the adjacent lot. Together, they introduce a thoughtful mix of residences that blend seamlessly into the surrounding neighbourhood. A landscaped central courtyard creates a shared outdoor space and preserves open views of the church’s architectural details, reinforcing its presence as a focal point of the community.
Weston Consulting supported the planning approvals on behalf of 169 -175 Church Towns Inc., guiding the project through municipal review and heritage coordination. The final result is a distinctive residential offering that successfully merges history, design, and contemporary urban living in one of Toronto’s most beloved neighbourhoods.
