The Chinese in Early 20th Century Toronto: 90 Dundas West

Lee Hing was listed as a Chinese migrant residing in Toronto in a July 1900 letter to Rev. MacKay of the United Church. Between 1899 – 1901, Hing was listed as the only renter at Woods L Butcher at 90 Dundas West (now 3142 Dundas West). Hing may have worked at one of the Chinese business in the area, such as a nearby Chinese-run hardware store or a Chinese laundromat. Old 90 Dundas West was almost directly across from St. John Church.
