Summary

[edit]
Description

The official residence of the Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada, the original Government House was located near Fort York. Destroyed in the War of 1812 when a powder magazine exploded, it relocated in 1815 to the Elmsley house, located on the current site of 880 Bay St., which was destroyed by fire in 1862.

This building, the third Government House, was completed in 1870. It, in turn, was sold in 1912 and demolished a few years later. The fourth Government House, known as Chorley Park, was demolished by mayor Nathan Phillips in 1960, and became the present-day Chorley Park.
