- Now in its third year, Stouffville’s Heritage Awards showcase the built heritage contributions of local homeowners and businesses.
- “A built heritage property is a building, property or constructed remnant that adds to a community’s heritage and identity,” according to the Town’s website.
- With approximately 720 Built Heritage Inventory properties throughout the municipality, an award is given to one residential property and one non-residential property.
- Award winners are recognized for their work to conserve, restore, and/or adaptively reuse a heritage property.
- A nominated property’s architectural significance, historic value, neighbourhood context, and condition will be considered through the review process.
- Past Heritage Award winners include 233 Second Street, the Lemonville Community Centre, and the Stouffville Junction, which was once the Mansion House Hotel and is pictured above.
- Nominations can be submitted until June 30, 2024, by filling out the Town’s Nomination Form.
