Whitchurch-Stouffville

What goes up must eventually come back down and two local buildings are no exception.
The two residences, at 5859 Main St. and 14902 Hwy. 48, were issued demolition permits by Whitchurch-Stouffville council Tuesday.
While both buildings had been designated heritage buildings, the report prepared by the manager of building services found them to be in poor condition.
The building on Main St, located between East Side Mario’s and the Stouffville Veterinary Clinic, housed the town’s first pizza parlour several decades ago. It has had other uses since, including a take-out restaurant called Simpson’s.
The farmhouse on Hwy. 48, just south on Aurora Road, served as a home to several families since its construction in the mid 1800s.
