Chapel

Archbishop Sweatman of Toronto envisioned St. Alban's Cathedral replacing the de facto use of St. James' Church, whose parishioners would not countenance re-dedication to a new patron saint or loss of control of the church. St. Alban's was designated the cathedral of the Anglican Diocese of Toronto in 1883, while still in the planning stages. The chancel was completed in 1891, but after more than twenty years of inactivity the project was canceled by the primate. The chancel became the school chapel when the College leased the property.
