Nota geral
Mount St. Joseph was the motherhouse of the Sisters in London and opened on June 20, 1954. The main section of Mount St. Joseph served as the Sisters’ residence. From 1958, the facility also housed Mount St. Joseph Academy, a school for girls that the Sisters operated until 1985. In 1968, Ignatia Hall wing was opened as an infirmary and residence for
the senior sisters. It also housed Generalate offices and the Medaille Program Centre, which was located on the ground floor. In 1975, guests from the transplant program at University Hospital were given accommodation at Mount St. Joseph. After the Academy closed in 1985, more rooms were available for families of patients and transplant patients in this wing who had come to London for medical care. The wing also was used for St. Joseph’s Health Care Centre. Immaculate Conception Chapel at Mount St. Joseph was planned and designed by Mother Margaret Coughlin, the Sisters of St. Joseph of London, and Philip Carter Johnson. The architect was Peter Tillman of Watt and Tillman of London, Ontario. It features stained glass by the Guido Polloni company of Florence, Italy. The Sisters decided to sell the Mount St. Joseph property and build a new residence at 485 Windermere Road in London. The sod turning ceremony for the new residence was held at the property on June 20, 2005. This new residence was designed by Richard Hammond of Cornerstone Architecture as a green building following Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards. The new residence was also designed to include a care centre. The new residence featured 70 suites for Sisters, six suites for guests, 24 suites for Sisters in the care centre, a chapel, dining space, kitchen and laundry facilities, a therapeutic pool, and administrative offices.
