On the north side of Kingston Road, a block east of Warden Avenue, stands this 101 year old (as of 2013) church. A 2012 Heritage Toronto plaque is affixed to the building beside the main door. Here's what it tells us:

The Anglican parish of St. Nicholas was founded in 1912 to serve the growing village of Birch Cliff. This building, opened in 1917, was designed by Toronto architect Harold Carter. Its steep roof and pointed arch windows are characteristic of the Late Gothic Revival style. Carter's original plan was finally completed in 1953, when the congregation expanded after the Second World War. As one of the first churches in the area, St. Nicholas Church has played an important role in the development of Birch Cliff.
