Buildings in the City of Windsor that have been through the city's many changes are featured in a temporary exhibit at the Chimczuk Museum.
Museum Windsor has unveiled the Buildings That Still Are exhibition, which examines the history and heritage of a variety of buildings throughout the city that are still around or have remained in use.
"Built heritage is all around us," read a media release from the City. "It includes everything from schools and residences to places of worship, community spaces, and much more. The neighborhoods we call home showcase unique structures and buildings that reflect our city’s heritage."
The exhibit discusses 41 buildings, which include private homes, schools, churches, apartment buildings, and former entertainment venues. The properties cover all of the City's neighbourhoods, and are located downtown and in Walkerville, Sandwich, Ford City, Riverside, West Windsor, South Windsor, and South Walkerville.
Among them is the Dominion House Tavern, a licenced tavern since 1869, making it the oldest drinking establishment in the region and one of the oldest in Ontario.
Also on display is a portion of a window from St. John's Anglican Church, and an original tile from nearby Mackenzie Hall.
Complete information on all Museum Windsor programming can be found on its official website.
