Mackenzie House

Built in 1858, Mackenzie House was the last home of Toronto's first mayor, William Lyon Mackenzie, also a passionate journalist and the leader of the Rebellion of 1837.

Mackenzie House is a late-Georgian Greek Revival row-house located at 82 Bond Street in downtown Toronto. The house is significant for its connection to William Lyon Mackenzie, the city’s first mayor and a radical journalist and political reformer. The Bond Street residence was purchased by Mackenzie’s friends and supporters, and presented to him in 1859. Mackenzie lived at Bond Street until his death in 1861, and his family continued to reside in the house until 1871.

The museum offers visitors the chance to explore the recreated print shop and gallery or enjoy the many changing exhibitions.
