The Parkdale Arts and Cultural Centre was the City's Police Station — 6 Division from 1931-63. The building now has nine active work studios for artists, as well as community offices and an art gallery, Gallery 1313 (once the site of 12 holding cells for prisoners). The art deco clock above the main entrance was repaired but is not currently functioning.
