Canadian figure skater Tessa Virtue and husband Morgan Rielly have been advised to halt the exterior paint job on their Toronto heritage home.
Renovations at the home of the celebrity couple were front and centre at the Toronto and East York Community Council meeting on Tuesday. Documents obtained by Global News show a building permit was issued for the heritage property in May 2023. A revised building permit was issued months later in September.
According to a city staff report, revised drawings showed new windows, and a proposed front elevation “included a note saying the brick was to be painted.” It goes on to read that, “Heritage Planning staff were not aware of this note when they cleared the Building Permit,” and permit drawings didn’t contain any references to the “painting of masonry on the side elevations.”
During a visit by Heritage Planning, city staff noticed “the west façade of the house” was being painted. As Shallima Maharaj reports, the reno is facing pushback.
