Haggertlea

Haggertlea, at 28 Elizabeth Street North in historic downtown Brampton, is a heritage-designated 19th century Second Empire estate. Built in 1870, the building is named after the original resident John Haggert, the first Mayor of Brampton. Haggertlea will be conserved in its entirety, restored, and integrated into the larger redevelopment of the site at 33 George Street by Greenwin, which will accommodate two residential towers designed by Sweeny&Co. The house will be adaptively reused, bringing vibrancy to the adjacent streets, and supporting the retail in the adjacent plaza. The open courtyard surrounding the heritage house will be dedicated for public events and gatherings.

As heritage architects for this project, Giaimo led the Heritage Interpretation Plan and Conservation Plan approved by City heritage staff, and we are currently engaged to continue the project through the Construction Documents and Construction Administration phases of the project. The conservation approach for Haggertlea includes restoration and reconstruction of missing elements, including the entrance tower, in order to prepare for its future adaptive reuse as part of the larger surrounding mixed-use development.
