Yorkville Town Hall
The building served as the town hall until 1883, when Yorkville was annexed into Toronto. The building then became known as St. Paul's Hall and had a public library, along with various clubs and community uses. The hall survived until 1941, when it was destroyed by fire and was demolished. The site is now home to a condominium building and is across the street from the Toronto Reference Library.
The town hall's coat of arms plaque survives today on the front face of the Toronto Fire Services Station 312 (old TFD Station 10). The fire hall is located at 34 Yorkville Avenue and has been historically protected by the City of Toronto, after being designated as a heritage property in the City of Toronto Heritage Property Inventory on June 20, 1973.
