Our Latest Issue of Hēritage Magazine is Hot Off the Press!

Our Special Holiday issue of Hēritage magazine has been released and you don’t want to miss it. Here are some highlights:
• Are Canada’s Historic Schools our Next Endangered Species?– Our cover story tackles the pressing issue of school closures. Located in established neighbourhoods, historic schools are important anchors that help connect people to their communities. Many are falling victim to declining enrolment, deferred maintenance and development pressures. Find out about the issues facing historic schools, and how some are being saved through modernization while others are converted to new uses.
• Connecting People to Heritage Places –A reminiscence of an early HCF Heritage Regions project puts the spot-light on today’s community revitalization efforts and their economic, environmental and social spinoffs.
• Homes for the Holidays! Historic sites across the country are organizing events and activities that are mixing the joy of the holiday season with a celebration of the past.
• Reopening the Stores – A progressive property development company in Saint John, N.B. has brought the long-vacant 1842 British Military Ordnance Building back to life, uncovering important artifacts along the way.

And don’t miss our regular articles appearing under Faces and Places, Heritage Headlines and Heritage Updates.
