About
the
project...
The project has documented over 100 sites in the Wawanesa and Area that
possess heritage characteristics.
For each site we have taken photos and attempted to determine the
origins and significance of the site, as well as noting,
for the
record, architectural, material and design details.
In some cases other
resources have been identified.
The Special Places Concept...
Special
Places Projects were developed by the Historic Resources Branch as a
method of creating Community Inventories of Heritage Resources and
subjecting the sites to an analysis process that will help communties
protect and use their heritage resources to best advantage.
The
project helps
communities develop the necessary processes, protocols and products
that
will lead to a deeper appreciation and celebration of local heritage.
It
will also put in place the messages and frameworks that will initiate
the
community into the kind of sophisticated dialogue that defines heritage
activity
in the 21st century.
