Heritage advocates in uproar over application for a demolition permit on historic building in Victoria Andrea Peacock News Staff
The Anglican Diocese of B.C. has applied for a demolition permit of a heritage building in Victoria, causing uproar in the James Bay community. The St. James Mission of Christ Church Cathedral School, located at 520 Niagara St. is on the city’s heritage registry, but it is not legally protected as a heritage site. Bishop Logan McMenamie said the Anglican diocese would like the school to be taken off the heritage registry completely in order to increase its value. He said the city put the building on the registry without the diocese’s permission. “We have a building that’s not safe,” McMenamie said. “It’s not seismically upgraded.” City Coun. Pamela Madoff said the diocese is eligible to apply for a grant to get seismic upgrades on the building but has not expressed interest. PlEASE SEE: Building has historic value, Page A27
