History & housing stock
Architectural era · Preserved Georgian and Regency brick (~1815–1860) — one of the most intact post-War-of-1812 heritage streetscapes in Canada
Old Town Niagara-on-the-Lake was the original capital of Upper Canada (1792–1797) and was burned by American forces during the War of 1812 in 1813. The town was rebuilt in the 1810s and 1820s in Georgian and Regency brick — housing stock is nearly intact from that period. Queen Street between Mississagua and King is one of the most-preserved heritage commercial main streets in Canada. Home to Fort George National Historic Site and the annual Shaw Festival theatre season.
