Run by the Salvation Army, the Toronto Grace Hospital first opened in 1905.

Located on the corner of Church and Bloor Street in downtown Toronto. The six-storey facility[1] was known as a maternity hospital up to the 1970's when the hospital closed its pregnancy ward. It was one of the first hospitals in Canada to introduce Palliative care[citation needed]]. It is permanently staffed by 12 physicians and a host of volunteers.[2]

In 2002, the hospital underwent several renovations, meant to curb energy consumption, in associated with the Energy Innovators Initiative[3]
