127 Hurontario Street
- N. Pt. Lot 18 Plan 282, By-law No. 90-86
Built in approximately 1890 this two storey brick structure appears to be a separate part forming a symmetrical building block with the three adjacent buildings to the south. For many years the home of Nettleton Jewellers and at one time the Department of Agriculture’s District Office, the building shares common cornice and parapet treatements with the adjacent buildings. The two centre buildings (129 and 133 Hurontario St.) each have two bays with wide semi-elliptical arched window flanked on the north and south by three bay designs with narrower windows with segmental arches. The windows have projecting hood moulds outlined by a single row of corbelled brick. The windows are close to the original design with traditional mullions and double hung sash. The unifying cornice of flat corbelled machicolation and double dogtooth band course is interrupted by bracketed plaster piers ornamented with a rough textured brick panel.
