1928

Sancis built by Salvatore Sanci who had moved here from Sicily in 1914. The store opened in 1928, and he was the only non-Jewish merchant in Kensington. In 1998, City of Toronto Mayor Mel Lastman, who grew up in Kensington, did a walkabout through the area and met Frances Borg of Sancis, a boyhood neighbour and friend.
