another gut reno in the Junction



Viewed from the turn at Gilmour Ave this house appears set or is in the process of really big changes,  right now the back windows have been removed and the decorative ornamental mouldings

This is another large - strip the house reno in the junction, and there is another one going on on Mc Murray Avenue at the same time.  Renovations of this type as they become more and more frequent are really likely to change the historic and cultural milieu of the Junction area. The area needs some work for sure, and people who put the money into that amount of renovation should be here to stay, with the concomitant interest in the community, yet without building & planning controls to ensure building and zoning character the community will lose.
