Phase 2 of the Conserving Heritage Landscapes Project is underway
We need your help to identify Mississauga places that are unique and valuable to you.
Get Involved
The City is updating its 2005 Cultural Heritage Landscape Inventory. Cultural heritage landscapes are *areas* of cultural heritage value or interest. The review includes:
- Evaluating the 2005 inventory for landscapes to be included or removed
- Determining if additional cultural heritage landscapes may be added to the inventory, and
- Examining ways to effectively manage change within and around these landscapes
Your participation and input is critical in identifying what places are unique and valuable to you, and what makes these places important. Please share your memories, opinions, drawings, images and ideas about what makes any and all of these places important and special.
Archaeological Services Inc. (ASI), SGL Planning and Design Inc. landPlan and GBCA Architects are conducting the review.
Project Update
We’ve heard back from impacted property owners; they think that Dickson Park Crescent, Gordon Woods and Meadowvale are significant sites worthy of conservation. Do you have follow up questions about what it means to be a Cultural Heritage Landscape?

The golf course includes a 9-hole course and an 18-hole course on rolling shores next to Etobicoke Creek. The Toronto Golf Club is valued as an early example of a heathland golf course in Canada.
