Heritage

Heritage consists of those places and objects that we as a community have inherited from the past and want to hand on to future generations.  Our heritage gives us a sense of living history and provides a physical link to the work and way of life of earlier generations.  It enriches our lives and helps us to understand who we are today.  

The heritage of City of Canada Bay includes a wide variety of places including landmark waterfront sites, houses, industrial buildings, commercial precincts, parks, landscapes and conservation precincts.  These places contribute to the character of the local government area and help to make the City of Canada Bay an attractive place to live and work.

• Runner Up in the Keep Australia Beautiful Sustainable Cities Awards 2009 for the City of Canada Bay Heritage Management Program.
