I'm not sure if it lies within the heritage area either, but since it is a provincial building/property, regardless of whether it lies within the area or not, it is exempt from City regulations. The Province may merely choose to humour the City's process by granting land use assessments and public meetings for any development/redevelopment on its property - in the end, none of it binds the Crown.
Needless to say, if the Provincial Government wants to build a 15 storey square glass-clad office tower (for example) in the middle of the heritage area on Crown property, the City and the residents are out of luck!
P.S. And that includes if the Province wants to tear down "historic" structures on its land for redevelopment!
