One man is in hospital after a shooting in the Annex early on Friday morning.

The 27-year-old man was shot in a parking lot on Madison Avenue north of Bloor Street around 2:20 a.m. This location is currently considered by some as a future home of the Estonian House in Toronto.

He remains in hospital but his injuries are not considered life-threatening.

There’s no word yet on suspects or a motive.

Building onto Latvian House28 Jun 2017 07:48
As architect and former Torontonian Lembit Tork suggested in a comment to another article, what if Estos built adjacent to the Latvian House?

The main beef seems to be that the community doesn't want to go into the crush of traffic in the Spadina/Bloor area for an Esto House on Madison, whether they are young or old.

We could sell 958 Broadview and build a culture "incubator" (I think Lembit called it) attached to the Latvian House. They have plenty of land to build on, parking can go underground, if necessary. What do others think? Or are we totally attached to the 958 Broadview property? Eglinton is having a subway built, so I believe it will run right by the Latvian House/Estonian House. Any thoughts?

Though I love the Madison design, I do not have faith in building above a Subway system (that can't be good for the structure) and I don't want to lose people who will not come downtown. Furthermore, I don't think the 4org team has their ducks in a row regarding sustainability of the planned house on Madison -- I can't see this happening with a smaller footprint and fewer rooms for our community.

With the Madison option, we will most likely end up with the situation in New York -- they have their Estonian House downtown with expensive parking. NYorker Estonians often chose whether they will come into town for a Saturday event or another Sunday event, but most will not go through the hassle and expense of coming to two events. With the Madison build, we will be choosing such a future, I'm afraid.

There was an armed robbery on our current facility quite a long time ago.
