Are you aware of a potential heritage resource that others may not know about? The Heritage Advisory Committee in West Vancouver is asking the community to suggest heritage resources that are valued by the community but have not yet been identified.
West Vancouver contains a number of significant heritage resources, from historic structures and buildings to significant landscapes and key historic features found throughout the community. The District keeps inventories of these heritage resources, but it is likely that there are more heritage resources that are not yet identified and valued by the community.
Heritage resources can include:
buildings
structures (e.g. monuments or public art)
groups of buildings / structures (e.g. streetscapes, historic districts)
landscape features (e.g. parks, viewpoints, gardens, benches, or plaques)
cultural landscapes (e.g. commemoration trees)
historical archaeological sites
Heritage Week is February 21 to 27, and this year’s theme is “Altogether Inclusive”. When heritage responds to diversity and accessibility challenges, it becomes inclusive. The District wants to hear what heritage resources are important to you, so that heritage can be recognized in all its forms.
