Recommendation:
That the information provided by the owner of 12 Wilson Street regarding the building from a cultural heritage perspective be received as information; and,
The committee could consider the following options as feedback to the owners.
Option 1
That Heritage Markham considers the portion of the building fronting onto Wilson Street to possess cultural heritage value and it should be retained and restored as part of any future development of the overall property.
Option 2
That Heritage Markham considers the building to no longer possess cultural heritage value due to the alterations that have occurred over time, but recommends that the building be replicated in whole or in part as a component of any future development of the overall property so as to support the heritage character of the Wilson Street streetscape and provide a heritage presence at this location.
Option 3
That Heritage Markham considers the building to no longer possess cultural heritage value due to the alterations that have occurred over time, but recommends that the Carlton House be commemorated through the provision, by the owner, of a City Markham Remembered plaque placed at this location.
Option 4
That Heritage Markham considers the building to no longer possess cultural heritage value due to the alterations that have occurred over time, but could support its replacement with new construction that reflects the massing, scale, forms and possibly the materials of the original house in order to complement the architectural character of neighbouring heritage resources, but not necessarily be a replica of the Carlton House.
