The Frontenac Court House built in the 18508 . was rehabilitated in the 1960s but in 19':4 part of the are; was demolished to make way for a parking lot. The Rideau Street Convent was designated a National. and Historic Site and three days later it was demolished by a developer. There is no legislation to protect that sort of thing because it's designated as a Historic building does -not mean it's going to he perserved, said Kelly. • In the late 1800s there was a move to more awareness on the part of the public to • preserve the heritage, especially those things dealing with important people and important events such as the cottage of Anne of Green Gables and the Sir .John A. MacDonald home. ,Kelly spoke of the tremendous restoration done at• Dundurn Castle since it was started as a museum in the early 1900's. He also praised the work of the people responsible fon saving the Goderich and Fergus }ails and said they were most important to an era in their own right. Shall communities across Canada are trying to recapture the past and in Barkerville, B.C. that community has restored as much as possible of what existed there, Barkeryille was settled in the 1860s and' the restoration began in 1956. He mentioned too, Upper Canada Village, Morrisburg; Heritage Village, Calgary; and Lower Fort Garry. In. Burnaby, B.C. where none of the old existed, the town- speople reconstructed what had been there at three- quarter scale of the origial. Fort Edmonton had been preserved many years ago by dismantling and numbering each piece, and carefully storing it for reconstructing at a later date. When King George V ascended to the throne, the townsfolk of Edmonton held.a celebratory bonfire and burned all the old Fort, Now it is reconstructed; but of new material`s • Kelly said that the hest reconstructed project in Canada is at Louisbourg, a fortress on the eastern coast. In '1938, the Federal Gover- nment designated the site of Louisbourg and in 1960 they started to move on the restoration program to reconstruct. Today they have recon- structed the fort and about one-fifth of the town. It is possible today in Louisbourg to have lunch in the same fashion it would have been served to you in the 1500s'A LO(:AI. SITES PRESERVED Kelly spoke of the restoration of the Benmiller Inn; Union Station in Ottawa; the Grand Trunk Railway Station in Petrolia; the Liquor Control Board Outlets in Elora, Ridgetown, Niagara•on-the-Lake and Front Street in Toronto, he credited the LCBO with saving these buildings) Kingston City Hall, Down- town Halifax along the waterfront; Christ Church Cathedral and the Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver. The foremost is Vancouver's Gastown area with its cob- bled streets and gas lighting. The main street in Kin- cardine and Ridgetown were also mentioned. The speaker showed some beautiful slides of Dawson City founded in 1889 and by 1896 it boasted a population of 39,000. It was a "rough and ready" town with its miners and gambling, etc. The government is plan- ning to spend 25 million dollars in the next ten years to restore it. The people during the gold rush came to Dawson City by stern wheeler and it was the home of Robert Service when h'e wrote such poems as "The Shooting of Dan McGrew" and the "Cremation of Sam McGee". His cabin still stands and has been preserved. It is ironic, said Kelly, that in 1953 the government gave an emphatic "no" when asked for aid in the restoration of Dawson City. However in 1974 they reversed their decision and said "yes". Kelly did the. -narration of all the slides and com- parisons of yesterday and today, the good and the bad, the restored and the fallen.• His slides -and commentary were excellent. Nick Hill informed the group that $300 had been received from the John Galt Branch of Heritage Canada and `300 from the ' Architectural Conservancy of Ontario to finance a. photography exhibition. Kelvin Jervis of Clinton showed .som'e architectural photographs at the meeting. Mr. Jervis has been com- misioned to do the work for the exhibition. The display will consist of older buildings in the county.
