A building near Toronto’s Kensington Market that was partially demolished Saturday after it leaned over the sidewalk(opens in a new tab) was deemed “unsafe” by the city a decade ago, publicly-accessible records show.

According to a July 15, 2014 inspection of the building on Dundas Street near Augusta Avenue(opens in a new tab), the property owner was issued an “order to remedy unsafe building,” the status of which is listed as “not resolved.”

“The building (or part of) was deemed to be unsafe; steps must be taken to render the building safe,” the order read.
