1 6 Preserving History, Heritage & Culture Overview Heritage and culture are interrelated aspects of a society that define our past, present and future. Recognizing and preserving heritage and culture helps a community appreciate the contributions of past citizens and important buildings, spaces, and events. Heritage can be both tangible (buildings, landscapes, streetscapes, structure, monuments and installations) and intangible (festivals, cultural spaces and skills). Buildings and amenities such as the Mayfair Branch Library are an important part of the neighbourhood s history and culture. The Mayfair & Kelsey-Woodlawn neighbourhoods have a history, heritage, and culture that are unique in the city the neighbourhoods have been home to a variety of significant people, buildings, and events. The LAPC feels this the story of the neighbourhoods is somewhat under-told, and needs to be promoted and shared. 1 Page

2 Goals The Mayfair & Kelsey-Woodlawn LAPC created a number of goals intended to guide the preservation of history, heritage, and culture in Mayfair & Kelsey-Woodlawn. They are as follows: 1. Improve quality of life, economic development, and social well-being through history and heritage preservation. 2. Promote and celebrate the unique history and heritage of Mayfair & Kelsey-Woodlawn. 3. Showcase the neighbourhood s heritage and culture through plaques, displays, and educational elements. Recognizing and Celebrating the History of the Area For a review of significant people, buildings, and spaces in Mayfair & Kelsey-Woodlawn, please see the History & Today Section. The City of Saskatoon Heritage Conservation Program provides incentives to Municipally Designated Properties. Property owners are encouraged to apply for Municipal Heritage Property designation to take advantage of these incentives along with the other benefits of designation such as increased public recognition and enhanced economic value of the property. In 2012, a comprehensive review was conducted to investigate the current state of heritage policy and practices in Canada, provide an analysis of Saskatoon s Civic Heritage Policy created in 1996, and recommend appropriate measures to protect and interpret Saskatoon s heritage assets into the future. A multi-year implementation strategy was developed, based on key program priorities that will support an enhanced and effective municipal heritage program. The City of Saskatoon tracks and protects heritage properties through a number of methods, including: A. Municipal Heritage Program Under the Program, a designated Municipal Heritage Property is recognized as being a property of major significance to the community of Saskatoon. Each property is protected by bylaw, which means it must be maintained and exterior character defining elements or important architectural features cannot be altered without the 2 Page

3 approval of the City. The City may offer financial or tax-based support to projects involving designated properties under this Program. B. Saskatoon Register of Historic Places The City maintains a list of sites with qualities or characteristics that are recognized as having significant heritage value. Sites listed on the Register are federally, provincially, municipally designated or achieve the criterion to be eligible for Municipal Heritage Designation under the Heritage Conservation Program. The Register is available to the public on the City s website. C. City of Saskatoon Heritage Awards Program The Heritage Awards are presented by the City of Saskatoon to acknowledge preservation efforts and the personal energy, time and commitment dedicated to Saskatoon s cultural welfare. The Municipal Heritage Awards Program occurs every two years allowing people to nominate someone they know who have made a difference in the preservation and conservation of the City s heritage.

4 Property owners in Mayfair and Kelsey-Woodlawn are encouraged to research their buildings and submit applications for heritage designation to the City. In addition to buildings, gathering spaces and community focal points also have historical connections. For example, both neighbourhood parks in Mayfair & Kelsey-Woodlawn are named after historic individuals A.H. Browne and Dr. J Valens. While some may know their history and contributions, others may not. To promote and increase the awareness of the park names, plaques with short descriptions of Dr. J. Valens and A.H. Browne should be created and displayed in prominent locations within each park. Recommendation: That Planning & Development install historical installations, such as new park signs, at both A.H. Browne and Dr. Valens Parks, explaining the historical significance of each person. If Industrial Park is renamed in honour of Anne Szumigalski (as per Recommendation...), a similar installation should also occur at this location. In 2003, the City Archives created a comprehensive, two-page document entitled A Brief History of Mayfair. It speaks to the early development of the area and includes interesting facts on the neighbourhood. It is currently available online at _history.pdf. Expanding the availability of this resource through means other than online will help promote the history, heritage, and culture of the area. One way to educate residents, businesses, and visitors to the area is to promote the distribution of A Brief History of Mayfair, specifically through hard copies at neighbourhood businesses. Recommendation: That the Planning & Development Division, Heritage & Design Coordinator notify businesses in Mayfair of the Brief History of Mayfair document, and that it be made available for display to interested customers and clients. 4 Page

6 Cultural Mapping and Heritage Properties Cultural mapping includes mapping resources such as things, places, and spaces; and identity mapping includes the recording of stories and other intangible cultural or historical facts. The map below shows history, heritage, and culture points of interest throughout the neighbourhoods, as identified by neighbourhood residents. Cultural mapping was conducted with the assistance of a student in the Regional & Urban Planning Program at the University of Saskatchewan. The student engaged residents regarding important stories in the Mayfair and Kelsey- Woodlawn neighbourhoods. Highlights of the findings include: Community members raised $70,000 for the construction of a permanent Mayfair Library in When there used to be a Bank of Montreal on 33 rd Street, it was the most robbed bank location in all of Saskatoon. Residents felt that if they could not go on vacation, at least they had Mayfair Pool. At times it got so busy that the girls would get fifteen minutes to swim and then with a whistle, the boys would then take a turn for fifteen minutes. There would also be water polo games held at night. The reason the north-south Avenues that run across 33rd street do not line up is because it was a corrector street for surveyors. Kelsey-Woodlawn was referred to as the "Quietest Neighbourhood in the World." Before industrial uses moved into Kelsey-Woodlawn, the cul-de-sacs on Idylwyld used to back onto wheat and barley fields. Development happened in an organic way and in different stages, at different time periods. This meant that in Mayfair s beginnings in the 1920s, houses were sporadic and the lots in between were empty and muddy. If you lived anywhere close to 33rd street, the street cars served as an alarm clock at 6 am every morning until they stopped running in Page

8 Streetcar History in Mayfair On January 1, 1913 Saskatoon s Municipal Railway system opened. The Mayfair-University line served the northwest part of the City, running north along Avenue F to terminate at 33rd Street. In 1914 the line was extended east from Avenue F to Avenue A (now Idylwyld Drive), where a turning loop allowed the streetcar to reverse direction. Saskatoon s last streetcar made its final run down the Mayfair line on November 10, The city replaced the streetcars with electric trolley buses for a period ( ) before going to the diesel buses in use today. Streetcars were an important part of the early development of the Mayfair and Kelsey-Woodlawn neighbourhoods. The LAPC feels that this important aspect of the area s history is not adequately promoted, and this is an opportunity to display this history in appropriate areas, such as the business corridor along 33 rd Street. Recommendation: That Community Services Department, Planning & Development Division, Heritage & Design Coordinator consider installing a historical marker/display on 33 rd Street, referencing the history of streetcars in Mayfair. Map excerpt of the Saskatoon Municipal Railway in 1936, after the line was extended down 33 rd Street towards Avenue A (Idylwyld Drive). 8 Page
