Formerly 42 Wellington Street, the building located near the south-west intersection of Wellington and Gore Streets, has had its address changed under city by-laws to 102 Gore Street. Believed to have been standing in 1829, the present structure’s simple, one-storey clapboard construction and un-coursed stone foundation are consistent with such an early date of construction. The building’s main massing features two large 1/1 windows, with wood shutters. Formerly, a one-storey southwest extension to the building featured clapboard siding. A renovation ending in 2024 included a single-storey vestibule along Wellington St., a second-storey addition, new windows doors and new paint colour. This restoration work was awarded by the Frontenac Heritage Foundation in 2025 for heritage conservation. More information is provided in our awards section.
