West End Y.M.C.A. 1890 The Toronto Young Men's Christian Association (Y.M.C.A.) commissioned architecture firm Gordon & Helliwell to design a new West End branch, which included a meeting hall; a library, and a gymnasium with a raised running track and a bowling alley. Constructed in the High Victonian style, the four storey red brick building featured sandstone accents and a trounded comer tower. In 1912, the Royal Templars of Temperance purchased and renovated the building. A dance hall was added in 1933 by the Independent Order of Foresters, a like minded fraternal organization that had merged with the Templars. From 1939 until 1987, the Polish National Union managed the building, publishing a newspaper and offering a range of services to new arrivals in their community. Later known as The Great Hall; the building became a music and culture venue. Designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, 1985. Heritage Toronto 2016
