Valeur patrimoniale
Historic Value
209/211/213 St. Anthony Street, as recognized by its municipal heritage designation, is valued for its contribution to the architectural landscape of the town. The property was part of that conveyed in 1718 by Maurice Vignon to Boston merchant Anthony Oliver. It was owned by the Oliver family until its sale in 1779 to Hannah Saunders, daughter of Anthony Oliver. It was sold again by Joseph Cossins in 1791 to a local Methodist association who erected a Meeting Hall on the site in 1798. The building served as a Methodist church until it was decommissioned and served as a tenement under several owners most notably, Cyrus A. Perkins who purchased the property in 1875. The Perkins family was owner of the property when the meeting hall was demolished in 1935. In 1938 Stewart Mills of Mills Motors moved onto the site a building from his premises on St. George Street. This structure was built by Mills circa 1928 following a fire that had destroyed several buildings in that part of town in late 1927.
Architectural Value
209/211/213 St. Anthony Street is an example of the Maritime Vernacular style as interpreted in Annapolis Royal. As this building has been covered with vinyl siding, much of its original exterior detail is hidden. Original decorative elements which remain are the wooden dentil mouldings and brackets along the top of the building. This is the only building in this section of Annapolis Royal which is topped with a parapet.
