De
La Salle Institute |
This building is located
on Adelaide Street at George, beside Toronto's First Post Office. De La Salle Institute
was Catholic boys' school started by the De La Salle Brothers in about 1851. They first
located at Jarvis and Lombard, and moved to this building in 1871, after the Bank of Upper
Canada folded and vacated the adjacent premises. The school remained at this location
until 1913 when they moved to Bond Street, beside St. Michael's Cathedral. In 1931 they
moved again to a property near St. Clair and Avenue Road, their present location.
