All Saints Developments Inc. is proposing to redevelop and repurpose 315 Chapel Street to accommodate a mix of uses that retain the historical presence of the All Saints Anglican Church and that complement the surrounding character and community of Sandy Hill.
The proposal is to be based on the following mixed-use program:
• improved green space along Laurier Avenue E.;
• four levels of underground vehicle and bicycle parking accessed from Blackburn Avenue;
• ground floor instructional facility (yoga/dance studio) or museum, two ground floor retail tenants, casual fine-dining restaurant (shown in P1 and Ground Floor on the concept plans since it functions as a half-basement within the existing church), event hall (existing church), and multilevel café and gallery;
• civil society offices and community space on floors two to four; and,
• residential or hotel units on floors five to nine.
The proposal has two main components; the first being the repurposing of the church, and the second being the eventual redevelopment of the east portion of the site. The first component proposes the conserved church be repurposed to accommodate a casual fine-dining restaurant on the ground floor (functions as a half basement) and an event hall on the second floor (functions as a ground floor due to the half-basement).
The second component relates to the development of a 9-storey building to accommodate a mix of uses that include, below-grade parking, two retail tenants, multi-level café and gallery, an atrium space for café seating, an instructional facility (yoga/dance studio) or museum, office space, community space, and 58 residential dwelling units or hotel units. The eventual construction of the new building will be located to the east of the church, and will replace Bate Hall, which previously served as an assembly hall.
