The original school, designed by architect G.M. Miller, was renamed Jameson Avenue Collegiate Institute in 1901, a name which it bore proudly until 1910. In 1910, the school was renamed Parkdale Collegiate Institute. The original Victorian building served the community until 1928, when it was demolished; the present structure was completed in 1929. Two significant additions, the last being in the 1960s, followed. Parkdale Collegiate Institute is the second oldest secondary school in the old City of Toronto.
