Church of St. John the Evangelist (The Garrison Church) 1858-1963 In 1858 the Anglican Church of St. John the Evangelist opened on Stewart Street to serve both the local population and the garrison stationed at the old and new forts (Fort York and Stanley Barracks). By the late 19th century, it had become a fashionable parish and the original frame structure was replaced in 1893 by a brick church on Portland Street. Designed by architect Eden Smith, the "Garrison Church" welcomed first British, then Canadian troops and their families, and met the religious needs of Toronto's militia regiments and veterans' organizations. Gradually the local residential neighbourhood was displaced by industry and the dwindling congregation could not meet the costs of maintaining the building. The church was deconsecrated and demolished in 1963. Regimental colours and other military items in the church were transferred to Canadian Forces Camp Borden.

Babe Ruth at Hanlan's Point Near this site, in Maple Leaf Park on September 5, 1914, the now legendary baseball player Babe Ruth hit his first home run as a professional. It was to be the only home run he ever hit in the minor leagues. As a 19-year-old rookie, playing for the Providence Grays in the International League, he connected with a pitch from Ellis Johnson of the Toronto Maple Leafs, sending the ball over the fence in right field and scoring three runs. Pitching for the Grays, Ruth allowed only one hit, earning the title "southside phenom" from the Toronto Daily Star. The final score was Providence Grays 9, Toronto Maple Leafs 0. Babe Ruth quickly moved up to the major leagues, and played his way to a phenomenal career. The Toronto team went on to win a total of eleven pennants before folding in 1967.

Chapel of St. James-The-Less In its vigorous, harmonious composition, this small funeral chapel is a splendid example of High Victorian Gothic design. Its sense of strength and spirituality is derived from the subtle contrast of its stone walls, enveloping roofs, and soaring spire. The chapel was erected in 1860 to plans by Cumberland and Storm, one of Toronto's leading 19th-century architectural firms. Situated on a slight rise, St. James is enhanced by the picturesque setting of its cemetery, which was opened in 1844 and is the oldest established cemetery in the city.

The "Canada First" Movement. Originating in Ottawa, in 1868, with informal meetings of a few youthful patriots, "Canada First" was the name and slogan of a movement to promote nationalist sentiment. Its founding members were Charles Mair, Henry Morgan, William Foster, G.T. Denison and R.G. Haliburton. Two years later the movement created the North-West Emigration Aid Society to encourage British immigration. In 1874 the group, now centred in Toronto, established "The Nation", a weekly journal, entered politics as the Canadian National Association, and founded the National Club as its rallying place. By then "Canada First" had the support of such influential figures as Edward Blake and Goldwin Smith. Though the movement's political influence soon waned, its expression of a popular Canadian ideal had enduring significance.

The Club Bluenote was a small after-hours rhythm and blues dance hall that played a vital role in the Yonge Street music scene. Owned by Al Steiner, the club was located near here at 372 Yonge Street for about 10 years until it closed in 1969. The club was later revived twice in Yorkville by Bill Balkou, Lou Balkou, Syd Markowitz, Jack Valianes, and George Olliver. The original Club Bluenote launched the careers of Toronto artists such as Jay Jackson, Shawne Jackson, and Shirley Matthews. It supported regulars like Bobby Dean and the Gems, the Statlers, the Peepers, the Silhouettes (with Doug Riley and Steve Kennedy,) and the Five Rogues, featuring Joey Chirowski, Don Elliot, Penti "Whitey" Glan, George Olliver, and Domenic Troiano. The club was popular with well-known international artists such as Stevie Wonder, the Righteous Brothers, and the Supremes, who performed impromptu late-night sets at the club after giving concerts at major venues elsewhere in the city. The musical style that emerged at the Club Bluenote and at other Yonge Street clubs was a unique blend of rock with rhythm and blues that became characteristic of the "Toronto Sound."

The Le Coq d'Or Tavern was one of the most popular rock'n'roll venues in Toronto in the 1950s and 1960s. Opened in the late 1940s at the heart of the Yonge Street strip, a raucous entertainment district between Queen and Gerrard Streets, the Le Coq d'Or hosted musicians such as Bo Diddley, Solomon Burke, Sam & Dave, and the Cougars, featuring Jay Douglas.

1918 Anti-Greek Riots In August 1918, over 50,000 people participated in riots that injured hundreds and caused significant property damage. Many of the rioters were veterans, already frustrated with government treatment, angered by Greece's neutrality during the First World War, and resentful of the large number of Greeks with highly visible jobs. On August 2, a mob attacked the Greek owned White City Cafe near Yonge and College Streets in response to rumours that a veteran had been roughly treated there. The mob swelled to thousands and looted Greek businesses as far west as Queen Street and Roncesvalles Avenue. Toronto police and Exhibition Camp soldiers were call to end the riot, but stood by as the violence unfolded. Criticized for their inaction, the police responded with excessive force the next night, beating demonstrators with whips and batons. The presence of additional troops, and threats to penalize public gatherings, kept tensions high in the following days. The underlying conflicts remained unresolved beyond the end of the war, but the intense violence of August 2 and 3 was not repeated.
