Thomas Hogarth House circa 1875

Thomas Hogarth House

Here, in front of this home at 58 Hogarth Avenue, on the north-west corner with Bowden Street, can be found a 2008 Riverdale Historical Society/Heritage Toronto plaque. Here's what it says:

This rural-style house was built for Thomas Hogarth, a local school principal. It's original lot extended north to today's Wolfrey Avenue and included a carriage house. The home remained in the family for over 85 years. Later neglected, it was saved from demolition in 1974.
