History of Sanctuary Lofts
The congregation built its second church on this site in 1912, designed by William R. Gregg, a Toronto architect who designed more than 20 churches for Presbyterian congregations in Ontario. Its tower is a landmark both on Dufferin Street and from the streets of the Dovercourt neighbourhood.
The City designated it under the Ontario Heritage Act in 2015 (By-law 83-2015), calling it an important surviving example of Gregg's work in Toronto.
Concept Loft Developments converted it into 14 lofts, 10 inside the church and 4 in a new addition to the east, many with their own front doors on the street.
