Executive Summary Archaeological Services Inc. (ASI) was contracted by AECOM, on behalf of The Regional Municipality of York (York Region) to conduct a Cultural Heritage Baseline Conditions study as part of the Upper York Sewage Solutions (UYSS) Environmental Assessment (EA) in York Region, Ontario. The purpose of this study is to identify the existing cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area in order to generate a more detailed description and understanding of the environment. The information generated from this study will be utilized in the screening, analysis, and evaluation of alternatives and assessment of impacts associated with the Preferred Alternative during the UYSS EA. The results of the background historic research and a review of existing information sources, including historic mapping and cultural heritage information from the Towns of Georgina, East Gwillimbury, Newmarket and Aurora, revealed that the UYSS EA study area has a land use history dating back to the early nineteenth century. The results of preliminary data collection indicated that there are 664 previously identified cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area. Two of these cultural heritage resources are designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act which legislates the conservation of property of cultural heritage value or interest. For the purposes of this assessment, the term cultural heritage resources was used to describe both cultural landscapes and built heritage features. A field review of the short list of alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance infrastructure routes was undertaken to collect textual data, conduct photographic documentation, confirm location and description of previously identified cultural heritage resources, and identify new cultural heritage resources. Field investigations have not yet been undertaken in relation to the proposed York Durham Sewage System (YDSS) Modifications Alternative Routes. Desktop data and results of background research were used to generate an existing conditions description of cultural heritage resources located in the vicinity of the YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes. Field survey activities will be undertaken in relation to the YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes during the impact assessment stage. Generally, the area proposed for development of a Water Reclamation Centre and associated conveyance infrastructure routes consists of actively cultivated agricultural lands that, on a broad level, retain cultural heritage landscape features that express early settlement and mid-to-late nineteenth-century township development activities in York Region and the Town of East Gwillimbury. Similarly, lands proposed for YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes may be considered to retain significant cultural heritage resources that consist of nineteenth-century rail corridors; twentieth-century engineering works; early twentieth-century rail radial rights-of-way; watercourses important to the development of the Town of Newmarket; and numerous built heritage resources that are architecturally, historically, and contextually associated with early development in the Town of Newmarket. In light of the results of the identification of cultural heritage baseline conditions of the UYSS EA study area, the following recommendations are made:


050278 (72) Page ii York Region No. 74270

Selection of a preferred Water Reclamation Centre Site should, if possible, avoid and/or minimize potential adverse effects to significant cultural heritage resources. All of the proposed alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites are located on lands that contain previously identified or newly identified cultural heritage resources, based on the result of field survey activities. Site WH 1 and Site 30 fully contain nineteenth-century agricultural landscapes that have been previously identified by the local municipality as significant cultural heritage resources. A portion of Site WH 2 retains a nineteenth-century agricultural complex while Site 24 was determined during field survey activities to contain an evolved agricultural cultural heritage landscape, containing a combination of mid-nineteenth and early twentieth-century structures. Should it be determined that any of the identified cultural heritage resources will be subject to removal, a detailed cultural heritage evaluation report should be undertaken to develop appropriate mitigation measures such as: conservation in situ, adaptive re-use and integration into proposed water treatment operations, relocation, and/or documentation and salvage.

Development of the conveyance infrastructure routes is planned to be within the existing road right-of-ways and as such would avoid potential adverse effects to identified cultural heritage resources located in close proximity to road rights-of-way. As the designs for conveyance infrastructure routes are refined and become more detailed, impact assessment and appropriate follow-up work, such as a preparation of a Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment Report, including development of mitigation measures should be completed. Special attention should be paid to development of the proposed outfall and the East Holland River/Holland River Diversion of the Trent Canal, in this regard.

The YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes should be planned to avoid identified cultural heritage resources. A detailed review of background research and desktop data confirmed that lands located between Main Street and Bayview Parkway/Prospect Street contain an evolved cultural heritage landscape that is characterized by remnants of the Newmarket Canal, watercourses that were instrumental to early town development, former transportation corridors such as railway networks and an electric radial right-of-way, and conservation lands and parks that contain a complex combination of natural and cultural heritage features. Additionally, it should be noted that a number of built heritage resources that have been previously identified by the Town of Newmarket are located within conservation lands and parks in this area and along adjacent streets such as Main Street, Prospect Street, and Bayview Avenue/Bayview Parkway. Selection of an alternative route should be undertaken to, if possible, avoid and/or minimize potential adverse effects to identified cultural heritage resources. Additionally, as designs for the YDSS alternative routes are refined and additional details become available, such as location of proposed shaft locations, potential adverse effects to cultural heritage resources should be confirmed and detailed field surveys should be undertaken to develop appropriate conservation and/or mitigation measures.

Section 1.0 Introduction

This report documents the existing cultural heritage resource conditions associated with the Upper York Sewage Solutions Environmental Assessment (UYSS EA) study area in accordance with the Cultural Work Plan included in the Minister of the Environment approved (as amended) UYSS EA Terms of Reference (March 2010). The approved UYSS EA Terms of Reference proposed the following investigative studies (individual work plans) for the purposes of generating a more detailed description and understanding of the environment and outlining how that generated information would be utilized in the screening, analysis and evaluation of alternatives and assessing the impacts associated with the Preferred Alternative during the UYSS EA: Agricultural Archaeological Cultural Heritage Natural Environment Land Use Noise and Vibration Odour

The approved UYSS EA Terms of Reference also stated that the results from undertaking each of these work plans will be documented in two reports during the UYSS EA as follows: Baseline Conditions Report

− Documenting the results of collecting and reviewing available existing information and carrying out the required field investigations.

Impact Assessment Report − Documenting the results of the impact assessment including additional

required field investigations. Upon completion, each report will be made available during the UYSS EA to review agencies, First Nations and Métis organizations, and the public for their information via the project website and upon request and will become either a reference or supporting document to the submitted EA Report. The EA Report will be based on and reflect the information contained in the two reports. 1.1 Report Objectives and Organization

More specifically, the objectives of this report are as follows: To evaluate the results of the background historic research and a review of existing

information sources, including historic mapping and cultural heritage information;



To identify the existing cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area in order to generate a more detailed description and understanding of the environment;

To recommend strategies for avoiding and minimizing potential adverse effects to identified cultural heritage resources.

With this in mind, this report is organized as follows: Section 2.0 describes the study area associated with the UYSS EA; Section 3.0 describes the methodologies used during the baseline conditions study; Section 4.0 provides a summary of historic research and a description of previously

identified above ground cultural heritage resources in the UYSS EA study area; Section 5.0 presents the results of the data collection and provides a preliminary

identification of the existing cultural heritage resources for the UYSS EA study area; Section 6.0 documents the results of the field investigations and research analysis

conducted for the short list of Alternative Methods (i.e., the short list of Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance infrastructure routes) and the York Durham Sewage System (YDSS) Modifications Alternative Routes;

Section 7.0 contains conclusions and recommendations for further work to be conducted; and

The remaining sections contain other information including references and a glossary of terms.

1.2 Development Context

All work has been undertaken as required by the Environmental Assessment Act and all subordinate regulation. This project is being conducted as an Environmental Assessment. All activities carried out during this assessment were completed in accordance with the terms of the Ontario Heritage Act and the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport’s Guideline for Preparing the Cultural Heritage Resource Component of Environmental Assessments (1992) and Guidelines on the Man-Made Heritage Component of Environmental Assessments (1981).



Section 2.0 Upper York Sewage Solutions Environmental Assessment Study Area

A preliminary study area was defined as part of the UYSS EA Terms of Reference for generating a general description of the potentially affected environment with the intent of finalizing it during the UYSS EA. The finalized study area is similar to what was proposed in the approved UYSS EA Terms of Reference with a more substantive change in the south where the boundary was revised northerly reflecting the Preferred Alternative To the Undertaking. The final study area for the UYSS EA extends north to Lake Simcoe, east to Woodbine Avenue, west to Bathurst Street, and south to Green Lane East where the east/west boundaries constrict to Yonge Street and Leslie Street, respectively, and the southern boundary terminates at St. John’s Sideroad. The UYSS EA study area includes the Towns of Aurora (very northern portion of the Town), Newmarket (bounded by Yonge Street and Leslie Street), East Gwillimbury (western half) and Georgina (extreme southwestern portion). Figure 2.1 shows the boundaries of the UYSS Service Area and the UYSS EA Study Area.

Section 3.0 Methodology

Using the framework provided in the approved UYSS EA Terms of Reference Cultural Heritage Work Plan, the known existing cultural heritage conditions within the UYSS EA study area were identified and described through a review of the available existing information sources. Research was completed to identify, through desktop data collection methods, previously identified built heritage resources and cultural heritage landscapes within the UYSS EA study area. This research was conducted in two phases. The first phase included a review of the previously identified cultural heritage conditions and the collection of desktop data from municipalities included in the UYSS EA study area documented in Sections 4 and 5 below. The second phase involved the field review and detailed research analysis of the existing conditions for the short list of Alternative Methods (i.e., short list of Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance infrastructure routes) and the YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes (see Section 6). This cultural heritage assessment considers cultural heritage resources in the context of improvements to specified areas, pursuant to the Environmental Assessment Act. This assessment addresses above ground cultural heritage resources over 40 years old. Use of a 40 year old threshold is a guiding principle when conducting a preliminary identification of cultural heritage resources (Ministry of Transportation 2006; Ministry of Transportation 2007; Ontario Realty Corporation 2007). While identification of a resource that is 40 years old or older does not confer outright heritage significance, this threshold provides a means to collect information about resources that may retain heritage value. Similarly, if a resource is slightly younger than 40 years old, this does not preclude the resource from retaining heritage value. For the purposes of this assessment, the term cultural heritage resources was used to describe both cultural landscapes and built heritage features. A cultural landscape is perceived as a collection of individual built heritage features and other related features that together form farm complexes, roadscapes and nucleated settlements. Built heritage features are typically individual buildings or structures that may be associated with a variety of human activities, such as historical settlement and patterns of architectural development. The analysis in the UYSS EA addresses cultural heritage resources under various pieces of legislation and their supporting guidelines. Under the Environmental Assessment Act (1990) environment is defined in Subsection 1(c) to include: cultural conditions that influence the life of man or a community, and; any building, structure, machine, or other device or thing made by man.

The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport is charged under Section 2 of the Ontario Heritage Act with the responsibility to determine policies, priorities and programs for the conservation, protection and preservation of the heritage of Ontario. The Ministry has published two guidelines



to assist in assessing cultural heritage resources as part of an Environmental Assessment: Guideline for Preparing the Cultural Heritage Resource Component of Environmental Assessments (1992), and Guidelines on the Man-Made Heritage Component of Environmental Assessments (1981). Accordingly, both guidelines have been utilized in the UYSS EA. The Guidelines on the Man-Made Heritage Component of Environmental Assessments (Section 1.0) state the following:

“When speaking of man-made heritage we are concerned with the works of man and the effects of his activities in the environment rather than with movable human artifacts or those environments that are natural and completely undisturbed by man.”

In addition, environment may be interpreted to include the combination and interrelationships of human artifacts with all other aspects of the physical environment, as well as with the social, economic and cultural conditions that influence the life of the people and communities in Ontario. The Guidelines on the Man-Made Heritage Component of Environmental Assessments distinguish between two basic ways of visually experiencing this heritage in the environment, namely as cultural landscapes and as cultural features. Within this document, cultural landscapes are defined as the following (Section 1.0):

“The use and physical appearance of the land as we see it now is a result of man’s activities over time in modifying pristine landscapes for his own purposes. A cultural landscape is perceived as a collection of individual man-made features into a whole. Urban cultural landscapes are sometimes given special names such as townscapes or streetscapes that describe various scales of perception from the general scene to the particular view. Cultural landscapes in the countryside are viewed in or adjacent to natural undisturbed landscapes, or waterscapes, and include such land uses as agriculture, mining, forestry, recreation, and transportation. Like urban cultural landscapes, they too may be perceived at various scales: as a large area of homogeneous character; or as an intermediate sized area of homogeneous character or a collection of settings such as a group of farms; or as a discrete example of specific landscape character such as a single farm, or an individual village or hamlet.”

A cultural feature is defined as the following (Section 1.0):

“…an individual part of a cultural landscape that may be focused upon as part of a broader scene, or viewed independently. The term refers to any man-made or modified object in or on the land or underwater, such as buildings of various types, street furniture, engineering works, plantings and landscaping, archaeological sites, or a collection of such objects seen as a group because of close physical or social relationships.”

The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport has also published Standards and Guidelines for Conservation of Provincial Heritage Properties (April 2010; Standards and Guidelines hereafter). These Standards and Guidelines apply to properties the Government of Ontario owns or controls that have cultural heritage value or interest. The Standards and Guidelines are



mandatory for ministries and prescribed public bodies and have the authority of a Management Board or Cabinet directive. Prescribed public bodies include: Agricultural Research Institute of Ontario Hydro One Inc. Liquor Control Board of Ontario McMichael Canadian Art Collection Metrolinx The Niagara Parks Commission. Ontario Heritage Trust Ontario Infrastructure Projects Corporation Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation Ontario Power Generation Inc. Ontario Realty Corporation Royal Botanical Gardens Toronto Area Transit Operating Authority St. Lawrence Parks Commission

The Standards and Guidelines provide a series of definition considered during the course of the assessment: A provincial heritage property is defined as the following:

“Provincial heritage property means real property, including buildings and structures on the property, that has cultural heritage value or interest and that is owned by the Crown in right of Ontario or by a prescribed public body; or that is occupied by a ministry or a prescribed public body if the terms of the occupancy agreement are such that the ministry or public body is entitled to make the alterations to the property that may be required under these heritage standards and guidelines” (2010:13).

A provincial heritage property of provincial significance is defined as the following:

“Provincial heritage property that has been evaluated using the criteria found in Ontario Heritage Act O.Reg. 10/06 and has been found to have cultural heritage value or interest of provincial significance” (2010:14).

A built heritage resource is defined as the following:

“…one or more significant buildings (including fixtures or equipment located in or forming part of a building), structures, earthworks, monuments, installations, or remains associated with architectural, cultural, social, political, economic, or military history and identified as being important to a community. For the purposes of these Standards and Guidelines, “structures” does not include roadways in the provincial highway network and in-use electrical or telecommunications transmission towers” (2010:13).



A cultural heritage landscape is defined as the following:

“… a defined geographical area that human activity has modified and that has cultural heritage value. Such an area involves one or more groupings of individual heritage features, such as structures, spaces, archaeological sites, and natural elements, which together form a significant type of heritage form distinct from that of its constituent elements or parts. Heritage conservation districts designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, villages, parks, gardens, battlefields, mainstreets and neighbourhoods, cemeteries, trails, and industrial complexes of cultural heritage value are some examples” (2010:13).

Additionally, the Planning Act (1990) and related Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) make a number of provisions relating to heritage conservation. One of the general purposes of the Planning Act is to integrate matters of provincial interest in provincial and municipal planning decisions. In order to inform all those involved in planning activities of the scope of these matters of provincial interest, Section 2 of the Planning Act provides an extensive listing. These matters of provincial interest shall be regarded when certain authorities, including the council of a municipality, carry out their responsibilities under the Planning Act. One of these provincial interests is directly concerned with:

2.0…protecting cultural heritage and archaeological resources for their economic, environmental, and social benefits.

Part 4.5 of the PPS states that:

Comprehensive, integrated and long-term planning is best achieved through municipal official plans. Municipal official plans shall identify provincial interests and set out appropriate land use designations and policies. Municipal official plans should also coordinate cross-boundary matters to complement the actions of other planning authorities and promote mutually beneficial solutions. Municipal official plans shall provide clear, reasonable and attainable policies to protect provincial interests and direct development to suitable areas. In order to protect provincial interests, planning authorities shall keep their official plans up-to-date with this Provincial Policy Statement. The policies of this Provincial Policy Statement continue to apply after adoption and approval of a municipal official plan.

Those policies of particular relevance for the conservation of heritage features are contained in Section 2 - Wise Use and Management of Resources, wherein Subsection 2.6 - Cultural Heritage and Archaeological Resources, makes the following provisions:

2.6.1 Significant built heritage resources and cultural heritage landscapes shall be conserved.

A number of definitions that have specific meanings for use in a policy context accompany the policy statement. These definitions include built heritage resources and cultural heritage landscapes.



Built heritage resources mean one or more buildings, structures, monuments, installations or remains associated with architectural, cultural, social, political, economic, or military history, and identified as being important to a community. Cultural heritage landscapes mean a defined geographical area of heritage significance that has been modified by human activities. Such an area is valued by a community, and is of significance to the understanding of the history of a people or place. Examples include farmscapes, historic settlements, parks, gardens, battlefields, mainstreets and neighbourhoods, cemeteries, trailways, and industrial complexes of cultural heritage value (PPS 2005). In addition, significance is more generally assigned a meaning according to the subject matter or policy context, such as wetlands or ecologically important areas. With regard to cultural heritage and archaeology resources, resources of significance are those that are valued for the important contribution they make to our understanding of the history of a place, an event, or a people (PPS). Criteria for determining significance for the resources are recommended by the Province, but municipal approaches that achieve or exceed the same objective may also be used. While some significant resources may already be identified and inventoried by official sources, the significance of others can only be determined after evaluation (PPS). Accordingly, the foregoing guidelines and relevant policy statement were used to guide the scope and methodology of the cultural heritage assessment. 3.1 Available Existing Information Collection and Review

The approved UYSS EA Terms of Reference Cultural Heritage Work Plan included a list of known available existing information sources, which have been collected and reviewed as part of determining known existing cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area. The sources of information utilized for this purpose are grouped according to the definition of the environment provided in the Environmental Assessment Act, namely the cultural environment as per the approved UYSS EA Terms of Reference. The cultural environment encompasses the cultural conditions that influence the life of humans or a community. For the purposes of the UYSS EA, the description of the cultural environment reflects the cultural heritage features within the final UYSS EA study area. Sources of information used in this report include: Agency and authority records of built heritage resources and/or cultural heritage

landscapes within the study area, including information on the following: − properties designated under Part IV or Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act; − properties contained on a municipal heritage register; − properties that may not be formally designated or listed but which are flagged

as having potential heritage value; − potential or proposed heritage conservation districts;



− pioneer cemeteries; − bridges contained in the Ontario Heritage Bridge List; and − copies of any cultural heritage studies completed as part of secondary plans

in the study area and which are identified as cultural heritage resources. General description of Euro-Canadian settlement and land use. Description of the development of transportation infrastructure. Historical mapping. Property information within the preliminary study area Available historical mapping, existing condition mapping, project mapping, and aerial

photographs will be reviewed, if available, and relevant agencies and authorities will be contacted as necessary, in order to make a preliminary identification of existing built heritage features and cultural landscape units within the preliminary study area.

3.2 Data Collection

In the course of the cultural heritage assessment, potentially affected cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area were inventoried. Short form names were usually applied to each resource type, (e.g., barn, residence). Generally, when conducting a preliminary identification of cultural heritage resources, three stages of research and data collection are undertaken to appropriately establish the potential for and existence of cultural heritage resources in a particular geographic area. Background historic research, which includes consultation of primary and existing information research and historic mapping, was undertaken to identify early settlement patterns and broad themes or agents of change in the study area. This stage in the data collection process enabled the researcher to determine the presence of sensitive heritage areas that correspond to nineteenth and twentieth century settlement and development patterns. To augment data collected during this stage of the research process, federal, provincial, and municipal databases and/or agencies were consulted to obtain information about specific properties that have been previously identified and/or designated as retaining cultural heritage value. Typically, resources identified during these stages of the research process are reflective of particular architectural styles, associated with an important person, place, or event, and contribute to the contextual facets of a particular place, neighbourhood, or intersection. A field review was then undertaken to confirm the location and condition of previously identified cultural heritage resources. The field review was also utilized to identify cultural heritage resources that have not been previously identified on federal, provincial, or municipal databases. Several investigative criteria were utilized during the field review to appropriately identify new cultural heritage resources. These investigative criteria were derived from provincial guidelines, definitions, and past project team experience. During the course of the environmental assessment, a built structure or landscape was identified as a cultural heritage resource if it is considered 40 years or older and if the resource satisfied at least one criterion in one of the following three categories:



Design/Physical Value: It is a rare, unique, representative or early example of a style, type, expression,

material, or construction method. It displays a high degree of craftsmanship or artistic merit. It demonstrates a high degree of technical or scientific achievement. The site and/or structure retains original stylistic features and has not been

irreversibly altered so as to destroy its integrity. It demonstrates a high degree of excellence or creative, technical or scientific

achievement at a provincial level in a given period.

Historical/Associative Value: It has a direct association with a theme, event, belief, person, activity, organization,

or institution that is significant to York Region, the Province of Ontario, or Canada. It yields, or has the potential to yield, information that contributes to an understanding

of the history of York Region, the Province of Ontario, or Canada. It demonstrates or reflects the work or ideas of an architect, artist builder, designer,

or theorist who is significant to York Region, the Province of Ontario, or Canada. It represents or demonstrates a theme or pattern in Ontario’s history. It demonstrates an uncommon, rare or unique aspect of Ontario’s cultural heritage. It has a strong or special association with the entire province or with a community

that is found in more than one part of the province. The association exists for historic, social, or cultural reasons or because of traditional use.

It has a strong or special association with the life or work of a person, group or organization of importance to the province or with an event of importance to the province.

Contextual Value: It is important in defining, maintaining, or supporting the character of an area. It is physically, functionally, visually, or historically linked to its surroundings. It is a landmark. It illustrates a significant phase in the development of the community or a major

change or turning point in the community’s history. The landscape contains a structure other than a building (fencing, culvert, public art,

statue, etc.) that is associated with the history or daily life of that area or region. There is evidence of previous historic and/or existing agricultural practices (e.g.,

terracing, deforestation, complex water canalization, apple orchards, vineyards, etc.) It is of aesthetic, visual or contextual important to the province.

If a resource met one or more of the categories, it was identified as a cultural heritage resource and is subject to further research where appropriate and when feasible. Typically, further historical research and consultation is required to determine the specific significance of the identified cultural heritage resource.



When identifying cultural heritage landscapes, the following categories were typically utilized for the purposes of the classification during the field review:

Farm complexes: .............. comprise two or more buildings, one of which must be a farmhouse or barn, and may include a tree-lined drive, tree windbreaks, fences, domestic gardens and small orchards.

Roadscapes: ....................... generally two-lanes in width with absence of shoulders or narrow shoulders only, ditches, tree lines, bridges, culverts and other associated features.

Waterscapes: ...................... waterway features that contribute to the overall character of the cultural heritage landscape, usually in relation to their influence on historic development and settlement patterns.

Railscapes: ......................... active or inactive railway lines or railway rights of way and associated features.

Historical settlements: ...... groupings of two or more structures with a commonly applied name.

Streetscapes: ..................... generally consists of a paved road found in a more urban setting, and may include a series of houses that would have been built in the same time period.

Historical Agricultural Landscapes: ....................... generally comprises an historically rooted settlement and

farming pattern that reflects a recognizable arrangement of fields within a lot and may have associated agricultural outbuildings, structures, and vegetative elements such as tree rows;

Cemeteries: ........................ land used for the burial of human remains.

3.3 Field Investigations

The approved UYSS EA Terms of Reference Cultural Heritage Work Plan proposed a number of field surveys that were to be carried out during the EA to supplement and enhance available existing information sources. Following the identification of the short list of Alternative Methods (i.e., short list of alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance infrastructure routes), a field review was conducted to identify additional heritage resources, to confirm the integrity of previously identified heritage properties and areas, and to obtain information to accurately map above-ground cultural heritage resources (see Section 6). The field review was undertaken by Mary-Cate Garden on June 19th 2012 and involved examination of the short list of alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance routes. Field investigations were not undertaken in relation to the York Durham Sewage System (YDSS) Modifications Alternative



Routes. Given that the proposed infrastructure in many areas is proposed within existing road right-of-ways or infrastructure easements, and that the Towns of Newmarket and Aurora were able to provide significant amounts of desk-top data on a Geographic Information System (GIS) platform (i.e., protected heritage resources, potential heritage resources, open spaces, trails, and conservation areas), heritage sensitivities were generated in the absence of field survey activities. A review of GIS data showing proposed infrastructure and indicators of cultural heritage resources, combined with analysis of historic and existing orthographic imagery enabled an appropriate level of identification of potentially adverse effects on cultural heritage resources. The field investigations consisted of the following activities: Photographic documentation of the short list of alternative Water Reclamation Centre

3.3.1 Description of the Short List of Alternative Methods and York Durham Sewage System Modifications Alternative Routes

Short List of Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites

As part of the UYSS EA screening process1, four alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites were selected as the short list of Alternative Methods to be carried forward for comparative evaluation (see Appendix A) as follows: Site 24 located on the west side of 2nd Concession north of Queensville Sideroad

(i.e., 20704 2nd Concession, East Gwillimbury). Site 30 located on the east side of Leslie Street north of Queensville Sideroad and

south of Holborn Road (i.e., 20913 Leslie Street, East Gwillimbury). Site WH 1 located north of Queensville Sideroad just south of Holborn Road between

2nd Concession and Leslie Street (i.e., 20908/20854 Leslie Street, East Gwillimbury).

Site WH 2 located on the east side of 2nd Concession just north of Queensville Sideroad (i.e., 1004 Queensville Sideroad / 20709-20733 2nd Concession, East Gwillimbury).

Conveyance Infrastructure Routes

Following the identification of the short list of alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites, infrastructure routes for conveying the collected wastewater to the proposed Water Reclamation Centre for treatment and for conveying the treated effluent from the facility to a discharge location in the East Holland River were identified for each of the short-listed alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites. Appendix A depicts the conveyance infrastructure routes to/from each of the short list of Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites. Detailed information regarding the short list of alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and the conveyance infrastructure routes are provided in the “Screening of the Long List of Potential Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and Development of the York Durham Sewage System Modifications (May 2012)”. York Durham Sewage System (YDSS) Modifications: Alternative Routes

Modification to the existing YDSS (proposed as an additional sewage forcemain through the Town of Newmarket) is also part of the Preferred Alternative To the Undertaking. To provide additional system reliability during high flow conditions, the existing YDSS would be upgraded / twinned to accommodate additional flows from the Towns of Newmarket and Aurora. The proposed modifications provide sufficient capacity for approved growth to 2031 and relief to the existing conveyance system during periods of extreme high flow during wet weather events 1.

(snowmelt, rainstorms) or during system maintenance operations at the Newmarket, Bogart Creek, and Aurora Pumping Stations. As a result, three alternative routes were developed for this additional wastewater conveyance between the existing Newmarket and Bogart Creek Pumping Stations and the existing Aurora Pumping Station (see Appendix A). Detailed descriptions of the YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes are provided in the Screening of the Long List of Potential Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and Development of the York Durham Sewage System Modifications (May 2012).



Section 4.0 Previously Identified Cultural Heritage Conditions within the Final UYSS EA Study Area

This section provides a brief summary of historic research and a description of previously identified above-ground cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area. A review of available existing information sources was undertaken to produce a contextual overview of the study area, including a general description of Euro-Canadian settlement and land use. Historically, the study area is located in York County in the following Townships: North Gwillimbury East Gwillimbury Whitchurch King North King South

A summary of the lot and concession numbers included in the UYSS EA study area is provided in Section 4.2 of this report. 4.1 Township Survey and Settlement

As discussed in Section 4.0 of this report, the UYSS EA study area includes the former Townships of North Gwillimbury, East Gwillimbury, Whitchurch and King. A brief description of the survey and settlement of each township included in the study area is provided below. 4.1.1 Township of North Gwillimbury

The Township of North Gwillimbury was the smallest Township in York County in terms of both size and population. It was approximately 29,011 acres and was bounded by Lake Simcoe to the north, the Township of East Gwillimbury to the south, Cook’s Bay to the west and Georgina Township to the east. North Gwillimbury was settled at the beginning of the nineteenth century and the first patent for the township is dated 1800 (Mulvaney and Adam 1885:164). By 1821 the combined population of North Gwillimbury and Georgina was 272 and by 1843 North Gwillimbury boasted a population of 697 inhabitants. The Townships of North Gwillimbury and Georgina have been united since the 1820’s (Mulvaney and Adam 1885:166). These two townships formally merged in 1971 and were incorporated as the Town of Georgina in 1986. The present day Town of Georgina includes the Village of Sutton, and the former Townships of Georgina and North Gwillimbury. York County contains three townships bearing the name Gwillimbury; North, East and West. All townships bearing this name were named after the wife of Governor Simcoe, whose family name was Gwillim (Mulvaney and Adam 1885:170).



4.1.2 Township of East Gwillimbury

In an attempt to uncover the best route from York to the British naval posts on Georgian Bay, Governor Simcoe commissioned the first survey of East Gwillimbury. This work was initiated in 1800 by John Stegman, and was followed by a number of other surveyors over the next century: Hambly in 1803, Wilmot in 1811, Lount in 1819, Chewitt in 1824, Lindsay in 1859, Haller in 1864 and Gossage in 1865 (Canniff 1878:XVII). Many of the early settlers in East Gwillimbury were Empire Loyalists, hired by the British to help fight in the American War of Independence. A number of Quakers were also attracted to the area by the promise of land grants and also the freedom to practice their faith in peace. A number of hamlets were established early on in the Township, including Holland Landing, River Drive Park, Sharon, Queensville, and Mount Albert. Holland Landing, Sharon, and Queensville are located within the UYSS EA study area and are discussed separately in Section 4.2 of this report. 4.1.3 Township of Whitchurch

The Township of Whitchurch was originally surveyed by John Stegman in 1800, who surveyed the first four Concessions of the Township (Miles & Co. 1878). The Township was named in honour of the village of Whitchurch, Herefordshire, in England, where Elizabeth Simcoe, wife of Upper Canada Lieutenant Governor Sir John Graves Simcoe, was born, and included the area bounded by present day Stouffville Road to the south, Yonge Street to the west, Davis Drive to the north and Durham Regional Road 30 to the east. The original concession and side roads still remain today: Woodbine, Warden, Kennedy, McCowan, Highway 48, Ninth Line, Tenth Line and Regional Road 30 were the concession roads and Stouffville, Bethesda, Bloomington, Vandorf, Aurora, St John's, Vivian and Davis Drive were the side roads. Within the Township of Whitchurch, several villages of varying sizes had developed by the end of the nineteenth century, including Newmarket, Aurora, and Stouffville. The Town of Newmarket is located in the UYSS EA study area and is discussed in Section 4.2.2 of this report. Like other Townships in York County, many of the early settlers in Whitchurch were United Empire Loyalists, hired by the British to help fight in the American War of Independence. A number of Quakers also settled in the area in order to take advantage of free land grants and the ability to practice their faith in peace. 4.1.4 Townships of King North and South

The Township of King was also first surveyed in 1800 by John Stegman and additional surveys were undertaken in 1836-8, 1852 and 1859. The Township is separated into the Townships of King North and King South, with Highway 9 serving as the dividing line. A number of settlements were established in King Township during the nineteenth century, including Aurora, Schomberg, Lloydtown, Glenville, Kettleby, Pottageville, Linton, and Nobleton.



The land within King Township was acquired by the British from the Mississaugas in 1784. The first township survey was undertaken in 1800, and the first legal settlers occupied their land holdings in the same year. The Township was probably named in honour of John King, who was British under-secretary of state for the Colonies during the 1790s and early 1800s. King Township was initially settled by the United Empire Loyalists, Quakers, and by immigrants from the United States, England, Ireland and Scotland. By the 1840s, the township was noted for its good land and fine farms (Armstrong 1985:144, Boulton 1805:82; Rayburn 1997:181, Smith 1846:90-91). 4.2 Historic Map Review

Historic mapping from the nineteenth century and historic topographic maps from the early to mid-twentieth century were reviewed to determine the presence of major settlements or historic features in the UYSS EA study area (Figures 4.1-4.4). A summary of the historic Lot and Concession numbers included in the UYSS EA study area is provided in Table 4.1. Although some features are illustrated on the historical atlas maps, it should be noted that not all features of interest were mapped systematically in the Ontario series of historical atlases. Given that the atlases were financed by subscription, and subscribers were given preference with regard to the level of detail provided on the maps, some features might not be represented in the atlas. Moreover, not every feature of interest would have been within the scope of the atlases.

Figure 4.4: The UYSS EA Study Area overlaid on the 1950 map of Alliston and the 1951 Map of Newmarket



A review of the 1860 Tremaine’s Map of York County, the 1878 Illustrated Historical Atlas of the County of York, and the 1928 and 1950/1951 historic topographic maps of the Towns of Alliston and Newmarket revealed that a number of major settlements and major historic transportation routes are present within the study area. The significant historic settlements in the study area include Holland Landing, Newmarket, Queensville, and Sharon and the major historic transportation routes and/or operators in the study area include the Holland River, Yonge Street, the Northern Railway and Toronto Transit Commission (TTC). A brief discussion of each historically significant settlement and transportation route and/or operator is provided below. 4.2.1 Holland Landing

Holland Landing is situated halfway between the Towns of Newmarket and Bradford at the former terminus of Yonge Street. It was an important point in the line of travel between Lake Simcoe and Lake Ontario long before York County was settled (Mulvaney and Adam 1885:200). Holland landing acted as a launching place for Aboriginal peoples for centuries and later served as a post for traders of the Northwest Fur Company (Town of East Gwillimbury 2011). Aboriginal groups used to meet at Holland Landing to receive their treaty payments (Mika and Mika 1981). In 1965 an Aboriginal burial ground was discovered at Holland Landing that contained forty skeletons (Mika and Mika 1981). It is believed that the site was previously an Aboriginal village. Governor John Graves Simcoe believed that the site of Holland Landing would make an ideal shipping and defense point between York (now Toronto) and Georgian Bay. By 1797 Yonge Street had been constructed to Holland Landing and provided an overland route for travelers. The first settlers arrived in Holland Landing in 1802 but the village was not formally established until the 1820s. By 1853, Holland landing was a busy centre and benefited from activity from Yonge Street, the Holland River, and the building of the Northern Rail Road. Two historic sites are located in Holland Landing including the Holland Landing Depot and the Samuel Lount 1791-1838 memorial site (Ontario’s Historical Plaques 2011). 4.2.2 The Town of Newmarket

The Town of Newmarket is situated in the former Township of Whitchurch, close to the northern boundary and a short distance east of Yonge Street, about 28 miles north of Toronto. The Town of Newmarket area was first settled between 1801 and 1803 when a group of Quakers from Pennsylvania secured extensive land grants for the area (Mika and Mika 1983). The Quaker community built a log meeting house and a board-and-batten church, which was the first house of worship erected north of Toronto. Throughout the mid-nineteenth century a number of other places of worship were constructed including Methodist, Christian, Presbyterian, Episcopalian, Roman Catholic and Congregational churches. A number of schools were also constructed during this period. The settlement soon became an important trade centre and served as commercial hub for people who had previously to travel to Toronto to do business (Mika and Mika 1983). By the 1850s the population of the Town of Newmarket was 500 and the community had three doctors, two breweries, one distillery, a cloth factory, five stores, three taverns, a druggist, a gunsmith, three blacksmiths, a tinsmith, three wagon makers, and a number of excellent farms (Mika and



Mika 1983). Fire destroyed a large part of the Town Newmarket in 1862 but the village recovered and was eventually incorporated as a town in 1880. In 1970 the Town of Newmarket became part of The Regional Municipality of York and in the following year it annexed part of the Townships of Whitchurch and East Gwillimbury (Rayburn 1997:383). Four historic sites are located in the Town of Newmarket within the UYSS EA study area boundaries. These sites include the Founding of Newmarket, Mazo de la Roche 1879-1961, the Meeting House of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) 1870, and the Newmarket Radial Railway Arch (Ontario’s Historical Plaques 2011). 4.2.3 Village of Queensville

The Village of Queensville, originally known as Hackett’s Corners, was a part of the various land routes between Lake Simcoe and Yonge Street. Queensville attracted a large number of Quakers who came from the nearby Village of Sharon. By the 1850s, Queensville boasted a school, post office, hotels, various churches, several shops, a flour mill and a grist mill (Town of East Gwillimbury 2011). 4.2.4 Village of Sharon

The Village of Sharon, originally known as Hope, was originally settled in the early 1800s by the United Empire Loyalists. Many of the early settlers were Quakers, who were attracted to the area by land grants offered at the time. David Wilson, one of the first settlers in the area, established a new religious sect called The Children of Peace, after breaking away from the Quaker Church (Town of East Gwillimbury 2011). The Children of Peace founded their society based on the values of peace, equality, and social justice (Sharon Temple 2011). The Children of Peace built a temple to raise money for the poor, built the province’s first shelter for the homeless, and established the province’s first cooperative and credit union. They were also politically active and played a role in the development of democracy in Canada through their support of William Lyon Mackenzie (Sharon Temple 2011). The Children of Peace built a number of unique structures including the Sharon Temple, which is now a National Historic Site and museum (Parks Canada 2000). 4.2.5 Holland River

The Holland River is part of the Toronto Carrying Place Trail, which was a route that was used by Aboriginal peoples and Europeans during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries as a convenient route between Lake Ontario and the Upper Great Lakes (Nature Conservancy of Canada 2011). The route included Lake Simcoe, part of the Holland River, and the Humber and Rouge Rivers. This route had long been important to Aboriginal peoples and later became vital to the fur trade as well (Township of King 2011). The first European to travel the Toronto Carrying Place Trail may have been Etienne Brule, who likely travelled along the Holland River to the Upper Humber and down to Lake Ontario while accompanying a party of Huron-Wendat on a mission to solicit the aid of the Susquehannah in a planned attack against the Onondaga



(Jurgens 2000). During the late eighteenth century Lieutenant-Governor John Graves Simcoe deemed the route to be insufficient for military purposes and commissioned a straight road to be cleared from Lake Ontario to Lake Simcoe (Stamp 1991). Yonge Street was constructed to this end, and the Toronto Carrying Place Trail became obsolete as a result. The original Toronto Carrying Place Trail is designated as a National Historic Site, although its route and exact location are not marked (Parks Canada 2010). 4.2.6 Yonge Street

Yonge Street was conceived by Lieutenant-Governor John Graves Simcoe who envisioned it as a way to connect York (Toronto) to Lake Simcoe (Gentilcore and Head 1984:150). The construction of Yonge Street began in 1794 under the supervision of Mr. Augustus Jones, a well-known surveyor. In the beginning, Yonge Street was largely impassable south of Bloor and only extended south to Queen Street (Mulvaney and Adam 1885:15). By 1797, Yonge Street had been extended north to Holland Landing. Yonge Street was frequently used by the North-West Company who encouraged the building of roads and used them for commercial purposes. The North-West Company even supplied funds for the improvement of Yonge Street and by 1810 the road was serviceable along its entire length. The land on both sides of Yonge Street was granted to settlers on the condition that they build a house, clear a portion of the land, and contribute to the construction of the road fronting the lot (Berchem 1977:28). Settlers were given one year to accomplish these requirements or their claims would be considered forfeit. The original terminus of Yonge Street was the Pine Fort on the western branch of the Holland River. 4.2.7 Northern Railway

The Northern Railway is depicted in the UYSS EA study area running southeast through the Holland Marsh and then south through the Town of Newmarket and just east of the Town of Aurora (Figures 4.1 and 4.2). The Northern Railway was incorporated in 1899 as the result of the amalgamation of two smaller branch lines. William Mackenzie and Donald Mann were the principal promoters who worked to build up the line to become a transcontinental system over a period of 20 years. The Northern Railway encountered stiff competition from rivals and required extensive expansion in order to compete. The construction of the Northern Railway was completed in 1915 but by that time it became clear that the line had overextended itself (Matthews 1990:18). The federal government was given control of the Northern Railway, which then became part of the publicly owned Canadian National Railway. Both the 1928 and 1950/1951 topographic maps depict the rail line running through the study area as the Canadian National Railway (Figures 4.3 and 4.4). 4.2.8 Toronto Transit Commission

The Toronto Transit Commission began operating in 1921 when it took over the operations of the Toronto Railway Company, the Toronto Civic Railway, and parts of the City-owned Toronto and York Radial Railway (TTC 2011). In 1927, the Toronto Transit Commission took over the City-owned Hydro Electric Railways including the Toronto & York Division interurban radial railway lines outside the City of Toronto to Port Credit, Lake Simcoe, and Scarborough. The presence of the Toronto Transit Commission in York County is reflected in the 1928 historic topographic map of Newmarket, which depicts a Toronto Transit Commission rail line operating



from the Town of Newmarket north to Lake Simcoe (Figure 4.3). This rail line was short lived and by 1930 the Toronto Transit Commission’s rail service to Lake Simcoe had been replaced by buses (TTC 2011). The Toronto Transit Commission rail line is not depicted on the 1951 historic topographic map of the Town of Newmarket, suggesting that these rail operations had been discontinued by this time (Figure 4.4).



Section 5.0 Desktop Data Collection Results

In order to make a preliminary identification of existing cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area, the Towns of Georgina, East Gwillimbury, Newmarket and Aurora were consulted. The Planning Department of each town was asked to provide information on the following categories: Properties designated under Part IV or Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act Properties listed on a municipal heritage register Properties not formally designated or listed but which may have heritage value Potential or proposed heritage conservation districts List of known pioneer cemeteries List of bridges contained on the Ontario Heritage Bridge List Studies completed as part of Secondary Plans that identified cultural heritage

resources In addition, the data bases of National Historic Sites and the Ontario Heritage Trust were reviewed to determine the presence of nationally or provincially recognized sites. It should be noted that Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act legislates the conservation of property of cultural heritage value or interest, while Part V legislates heritage conservation districts. A property designated under Part IV can be included in an area designated as a heritage conservation district under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act. Under these designations, alteration of or demolition of existing structures on designated properties or districts is typically not permitted without the approval of the Minister and/or municipality as defined in the Ontario Heritage Act. Appendix B lists the cultural heritage resources previously identified within the UYSS EA study area, and Figures 5.1 and 5.2 provide location mapping of these features.



Figure 5.1: Previously Identified Cultural Heritage Resources in the UYSS EA Study Area



Figure 5.2: Previously Identified Cultural Heritage Resources in the UYSS EA Study Area (Newmarket)



5.1 Existing Cultural Heritage Conditions within the Final UYSS EA Study Area

As discussed above, the Towns of Georgina, East Gwillimbury, Newmarket and Aurora were consulted in order to determine the presence of cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area. An overview of the existing cultural heritage conditions is provided below for each town included in the UYSS EA study area. 5.1.1 Town of Georgina

The Town of Georgina includes the former Townships of North Gwillimbury, Georgina and the Village of Sutton. The UYSS EA study area includes a portion of the former Township of North Gwillimbury (See Table 1 for lot and concession numbers). Nineteenth-century mapping (see Figures 4.1 and 4.2 in Section 4.2) reveals that Broken Front and Concession I were not settled during the latter half of the nineteenth century. This was largely due to environmental factors since these areas contain parts of the Holland Marsh. The properties surveyed in Concessions II and III experienced very little change during this period. Twentieth century mapping (see Figures 4.3 and 4.4 in Section 4.2) shows the same trends with parts of Broken Front, Concession I and Concession II being occupied by the Holland Marsh. Settlement is restricted to Concessions II and III with most structures adjacent to Leslie Street. Part of a Toronto Transit Commission line runs northwest through the northeastern limits of the study area in the 1928 mapping but this line is eliminated by 1951 (See Description in Section 4.2.7). No major developments occur during the twentieth century in the portion of the Town of Georgina included in the UYSS EA study area. No cultural heritage resources were identified within the UYSS EA study area limits by the Planning Department in the Town of Georgina. 5.1.2 Town of East Gwillimbury

The Town of East Gwillimbury experienced major changes throughout the late nineteenth century and first half of the twentieth century. Details of lot and concession numbers included in the UYSS EA study area are provided in Table 1 of Section 4.2 above. Nineteenth century mapping (see Figures 4.1 and 4.2 in Section 4.2) demonstrates that major historic settlements, including Holland Landing, Sharon, and Queensville, were well established by the 1860s. The Northern Railway and major transportation routes such as Yonge Street and Leslie Street were also well established by this time. One major change that occurred in the late nineteenth century was that part of the Holland Marsh was drained by 1878 and the exposed lands were surveyed and settled. This settlement occurs mainly in Concession I, west of Yonge Street and in parts of Concessions I and II. An area labeled “Gwillimbury as Laid out by the Government” is present on both nineteenth century maps but this area does not appear to be well settled. Twentieth century mapping (see Figures 4.3 and 4.4 in Section 4.2) demonstrates that major developments occurred within the UYSS EA study area during the first half of the twentieth century, including the channelization of part of the Holland River, the addition of hydro and telephone lines, and construction of a Toronto



Transit Commission rail line to Lake Simcoe. It should be noted that the Toronto Transit Commission rail line was subsequently removed by 1951. The Northern Railway is renamed as the Canadian National Railway in both twentieth century maps. Both properties designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act are found in the Town of West Gwillimbury. These properties include CHR166 and CHR197. Descriptions and locations of these properties are provided in Appendix B. Cultural heritage resources identified within the UYSS EA study area by the Planning Department of Town of East Gwillimbury are listed in Appendix B. 5.1.3 Town of Newmarket

The Town of Newmarket includes part of the former Township of Whitchurch. Details of lot and concession numbers included in the UYSS EA study area are provided in Table 1 of Section 4.2. Nineteenth-century mapping (see Figures 4.1 and 4.2 in Section 4.2) shows that Newmarket was a major settlement by the 1860s with both the Northern Railway and the Holland River passing through the town. Twentieth-century mapping (see Figures 4.3 and 4.4 in Section 4.2) shows that some major developments took place in the first half of the twentieth century including the installation of utility lines, the construction of a TTC rail line, and the channelization of the Holland River. The Village of Armitage is marked on both twentieth-century maps in the south east portion of the UYSS EA study area. With the exception of the settlement surrounding the Town of Newmarket, which is outlined on the historic topographic maps, the majority of settlements are located adjacent to major transportation routes such as Yonge Street and Leslie Street. Cultural heritage resources identified within the UYSS EA study area by the Planning Department of the Town of Newmarket are listed in Appendix B. 5.1.4 Town of Aurora

The northern portion of the Town of Aurora is located within the UYSS EA study area. Details of lot and concession numbers included in the UYSS EA study area are provided in Table 1 of Section 4.2 above. Nineteenth-century mapping (see Figures 4.1 and 4.2 in Section 4.2) shows that the portion of the Town of Aurora included in the UYSS study area was settled by the 1860s. No major settlements are present within the study area boundaries although historic transportation routes such as Yonge Street, Bathurst Street, Leslie Street, and the Northern Railway are present. An examination of twentieth-century mapping (see Figures 4.3 and 4.4 in Section 4.2) shows that little change occurred in this portion of the UYSS EA study area during the first half of the twentieth century. Cultural heritage resources identified within the UYSS EA study area by the Planning Department of the Town of Aurora are listed in Appendix B.



Section 6.0 Description of the Existing Cultural Heritage Conditions Based on Field Investigations and Analysis of Desk-Top Data for the Alternative Methods

Following the identification of the short list of Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance infrastructure routes and the YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes (Alternative Methods), a refined existing cultural heritage information review was carried out to build upon the information previously collected and reviewed. 6.1 Short List of Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and

Conveyance Infrastructure Routes

Generally, the UYSS study area proposed for developing a Water Reclamation Centre and an associated conveyance infrastructure route consists of actively cultivated agricultural lands that, on a broad level, retain cultural heritage landscape features that express early settlement and mid-to-late nineteenth-century township development activities in York Region and the Town of East Gwillimbury (Figures 6.1 – 6.4). Lands located between Holborn Road and Queensville Sideroad, and fronting on to the east and west sides of 2nd Concession constitute a relatively intact nineteenth-century cultural heritage landscape notably defined by 100 acre lot parcels, historic field boundaries and lot lines established by the 1870s, tributaries of the East Holland River, natural heritage systems, and established nineteenth-century farm complexes. These lands, as well as those along Holborn Road, between 2nd Concession and Leslie Street, serve as a very good example of an intact agricultural landscape that expresses the intervention of human activities alongside natural heritage systems such as cultural thickets, deciduous forests, and deciduous swamps. Comparatively, Leslie Street retains less landscape integrity, largely due to changes to historic lot boundaries and vegetation through mid-twentieth century severances for residential development. The results of field survey confirmed that all of the previously identified cultural heritage resources are still in existence and that these are concentrated along all three historic concession roads that will be subject to potential construction activities to accommodate installation of conveyance infrastructure. In most cases, structures located within identified cultural heritage resource parcels are set back from road right-of-way limits. However, in many cases, historic tree lines, vegetation, and fencing are situated in close proximity to road right-of-way limits. These features contribute to the nineteenth-century landscape design of identified cultural heritage resources and their contextual value. Likewise, all four alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites retain cultural heritage resources and may be classified as evolved nineteenth-century agricultural landscapes. Table 2 lists identified cultural heritage resources located either within the alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites or adjacent to the proposed conveyance infrastructure. Figure 6.5 provides location mapping of these identified cultural heritage resources.

East Holland River / Holland River Diversion of Trent Canal

The East Holland River played an important role in nineteenth-century land use activities such as establishment of lumber mills, which were critical to early settlement and economic development. However, from a cultural heritage point of view, it is the East Holland River’s temporary, and short-lived alteration into the Holland River Diversion of the Trent Canal that may most readily express cultural heritage value. In 1906, dredging of the East Holland River began at Cook’s Bay, south to Holland Landing. Due to political opposition, work on the canal ceased in 1912 and it never became operational. By this time, three locks, three of the four swing bridges, a turning basin, and approximately 80% of the excavation work had been completed. To the south in Newmarket, parts of the canal have been integrated into trail systems and conservation areas and surviving built portions have been documented through a number of travel sites on-line.

Identified through background research

6.2 York Durham Sewage System Modifications: Alternative Routes

All three alternative routes for the YDSS Modifications travel in close proximity to the historic core of the Town of Newmarket. The 1860 Tremaine Map of York Country illustrates that the Town of Newmarket had already been laid out by this time, largely concentrated between Gorham Drive and Davis Drive on the west side of the Toronto, Simcoe, and Lake Huron Railway, which later became known as the Northern Railway and then subsequently became part of the Canadian National Railway network. A number of other transportation networks are located through the historic core of Newmarket and in close proximity to the proposed alternatives such as an early twentieth-century radial line originally administered by the Toronto Transit Commission and a former canal (Figures 6.6 – 6.9) Immediately to the east of the mid-nineteenth-century rail corridor, portions of the Holland River Diversion of the Trent Canal are still in existence. Locally known as the Newmarket Canal, construction on this transportation corridor commenced in 1906 to provide an alternative and economical means for shipping goods from Newmarket. The canal design required dredging of the East Holland River, which first began in 1906 and took place between Cook’s Bay and Holland Landing. Dredging at the mouth of the East Holland River resumed in 1907. In May 1908, construction of lock infrastructure commenced and by late 1910, Lock Nos. 2 and 3 and a concrete dam were complete and construction has commenced on Lock No. 1. Unfortunately, completion of the Newmarket Canal was mired by political intervention and a change in government in 1910 signaled the end of the canal’s short-lived tenure. By 1912, all construction on the canal had ceased and the project cancelled. By this time, three locks, three of the four swing bridges, a turning basin, and approximately 80% of the excavation work had been completed. The canal never became operational as a navigable waterway used for transportation of goods (UntermanMcPhail Associates 2011). Although the Newmarket Canal was never completed and never functioned according to its original intent, it later became part of an expansive program of conservation land and recreational trail development through the north part of York Region during the 1950s (UntermanMcPhail Associates 2011). A review of trail maps from the Town of Newmarket confirm that much of the land located between Main Street and the Bayview Parkway and Prospect Street retains a complex system of significant nineteenth and early twentieth-century transportation corridors which have since been incorporated into a network of conservation lands, parks, and open space that have leveraged the historic function of these resources through the development of recreational trails. Some of the conservation lands and parks that are located within this area include: Bailey Ecological Park, Wesley Brooks Conservation Area, Fairy Lake Park, All Our Kids Play Park, Mabel Davis Conservation Area, and George Richardson Park. Generally, lands proposed for development of YDSS Modifications may be considered to retain significant cultural heritage resources that consist of: nineteenth-century rail corridors; twentieth-century engineering works; early twentieth-century radial rights-of-way; watercourses important to the development of the Town of Newmarket; and numerous built heritage resources that are architecturally, historically, and contextually associated with early development in the Town of Newmarket. Lands located between Main Street and the Bayview Parkway (north of Gorham Street) and Prospect Street (south of Gorham Street) consist of an evolved cultural heritage



landscape associated with many important phases of development in the Town of Newmarket between the 1850s and 1950s. It should also be noted that many of the conservation lands and parks located in this area retain built heritage resources that have been previously identified by the Town of Newmarket. Moreover, given that lands proposed for development of sewage system modifications are located in very close proximity to the historic core of the town, numerous previously identified cultural heritage resources are located along Prospect Street and Bayview Avenue/Bayview Parkway. Figures 6.10 – 6.12 illustrate previously identified cultural heritage resources and known cultural heritage landscape features located in the vicinity of proposed alternative routes.

Section 7.0 Conclusions and Recommendations

Archaeological Services Inc. was contracted by AECOM, on behalf of York Region, to conduct a Cultural Heritage Baseline Conditions study as part of the UYSS EA. This study identified the existing cultural heritage resources within the UYSS EA study area and presented the results of the field review and detailed research conducted for the short list of Alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance infrastructure routes and the YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes (Alternative Methods). The conclusions and recommendations of this study are presented below. 7.1 Conclusions

The results of the background historic research and a review of existing information sources, including historic mapping, cultural heritage information from the Towns of Georgina, East Gwillimbury, Newmarket and Aurora revealed that the UYSS EA study area has a land use history dating back to the early nineteenth century. The results of preliminary data collection indicate that there are 664 previously identified cultural heritage resources within the study area. Of these, two are designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. A field review was undertaken of the short list of alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites and associated conveyance infrastructure routes to collect textual data, conduct photographic documentation, confirm location and description of previously identified cultural heritage resources, and to identify any new cultural heritage resources. Field investigations were not undertaken in relation to the YDSS Modification Alternative Routes. Rather, desktop data and results of background research were used to generate an existing conditions description of cultural heritage resources located in the vicinity of YDSS Modification Alternative Routes. Field survey activities may be undertaken in relation to YDSS Modification Alternative Routes during the impact assessment stage as appropriate. Generally, the area proposed for development of a Water Reclamation Centre and an associated conveyance infrastructure route consists of actively cultivated agricultural lands that, on a broad level, retain cultural heritage landscape features evocative of early settlement and mid-to-late nineteenth-century township development activities in York Region and the Town of East Gwillimbury. The results of field survey confirmed that all of the previously identified cultural heritage resources are still in existence and that these are concentrated along all three historic concession roads that will be subject to potential construction activities to accommodate installation of conveyance infrastructure. In most cases, structures located within identified cultural heritage resource parcels are set back from road right-of-way limits. However, in many cases, historic tree lines, vegetation, and fencing are situated in close proximity to road right-of-way limits. These features contribute to the nineteenth-century landscape design of identified cultural heritage resources and their contextual value. Likewise, all four of the proposed Water Reclamation Centre Sites retain cultural heritage resources and may be classified as evolved nineteenth-century agricultural landscapes. A total of 13 previously identified cultural heritage resources and seven additional



cultural heritage resources identified during field survey activities are located within this area. All four alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites are located on lands that contain a combination of built heritage resources and cultural heritage landscape features. While conveyance infrastructure is expected to be confined to existing road right-of-ways, the proposed outfall may be located outside existing road right-of-ways. The proposed outfall is located in close proximity to the East Holland River, which was altered in the early twentieth century through dredging in this area, and construction of lock infrastructure south of Holland Landing. As such, land alteration activities in this area, if required, should be sensitively planned and informed by more detailed heritage investigations to appropriately avoid any cultural heritage resources, where applicable. Lands proposed for development of the YDSS Modifications Alternative Routes may be considered to retain significant cultural heritage resources that consist of: nineteenth-century rail corridors; twentieth-century engineering works; early twentieth-century rail radial rights-of-way; watercourses important to the development of the Town of Newmarket; and numerous built heritage resources that are architecturally, historically, and contextually associated with early development in the Town of Newmarket. Lands located between Main Street and the Bayview Parkway (north of Gorham Street) and Prospect Street (south of Gorham Street) consist of an evolved cultural heritage landscape associated with many important phases of development in the Town of Newmarket between the 1850s and 1950s. It should also be noted that many of the conservation lands and parks located in this area retain built heritage resources that have been previously identified by the Town of Newmarket. Moreover, the YDSS Modifications are located in very close proximity to the historic core of the Town of Newmarket and numerous previously identified cultural heritage resources are located along Prospect Street and Bayview Avenue/Bayview Parkway. 7.2 Recommendations

In light of the results of the identification of cultural heritage baseline conditions of the UYSS EA study area, the following recommendations are made: Selection of a recommended Water Reclamation Centre Site should avoid and/or

minimize adverse impacts to significant cultural heritage resources. All of the proposed alternative Water Reclamation Centre Sites are located on lands that contain previously identified or newly identified cultural heritage resources, based on the result of field survey activities. Site WH 1 and Site 30 fully contain nineteenth-century agricultural landscapes that have been previously identified by the local municipality as significant cultural heritage resources. A portion of Site WH 2 retains a nineteenth-century agricultural complex while Site 24 was revealed during field survey activities to contain an evolved agricultural cultural heritage landscape, containing a combination of mid-nineteenth and early twentieth-century structures. Selection of a recommended alternative should avoid and/or minimize adverse effects to these resources. Should it be determined that any of the identified cultural heritage resources will be subject to removal, a detailed cultural heritage evaluation



report should be undertaken to develop appropriate mitigation measures such as: conservation in situ, adaptive re-use and integration into proposed water treatment operations, relocation, and/or documentation and salvage.

Development of the conveyance infrastructure routes is planned to be within the existing road rights-of-way and as such would avoid potential adverse effects to identified cultural heritage resources located in close proximity to road rights-of-way. As designs for conveyance infrastructure routes are refined and become more detailed, impact assessment and appropriate follow-up work, such as a preparation of a Cultural Heritage Impact Assessment Report, including development of mitigation measures should be completed. Special attention should be paid to development of the proposed outfall and the East Holland River/Holland River Diversion of the Trent Canal, in this regard.

Selection of a recommended YDSS Modification Route should avoid and/or minimize adverse effects to identified cultural heritage resources. A detailed review of background research and desk-top data confirmed that lands located between Main Street and the Bayview Parkway/Prospect Street contain an evolved cultural heritage landscape that is characterized by remnants of the Newmarket Canal, watercourses that were instrumental to early town development, former transportation corridors such as railway networks and an electric radial right-of-way, and conservation lands and parks that contain a complex combination of natural and cultural heritage features.

Additionally, it should be noted that a number of built heritage resources that have been previously identified by the Town of Newmarket are located within conservation lands and parks in this area and along adjacent streets such as Main Street, Prospect Street, and Bayview Avenue/Bayview Parkway. Also, as the design for the recommended YDSS Routes is refined and additional details become available, such as confirmation of proposed shaft locations, potential adverse effects to cultural heritage resources should be confirmed and detailed field surveys should be undertaken during the impact assessment stage to develop appropriate conservation and/or mitigation measures.
