Battlefield Park
THE PROJECT
The 200th year anniversary of the Battle of Stoney Creek, will be taking place in 2013 in Battlefield Park. The anniversary presents a unique opportunity for new cultural tourism activities based on a heritage route linking key figures and locations associated with the War of 1812 throughout Southern Ontario. Battlefield Park will be a key component of the route.
Battlefield Park will play host to a number of historically related events celebrating this significant turning point in the North American theatre of the War of 1812. The importance of the Battle of Stoney Creek has been recognized with a National Heritage Designation by the Canadian Government. It is timely then for the City of Hamiltons Public Works Department to undertake a Master Plan Review of the buildings, programming and site at Battlefield Park in anticipation of 2013.
This Master Plan Review will address the goals of earlier plans and provide detailed planning for new facilities and a phased implementation strategy with associated costs and revenue opportunities.
While past plans and developments addressed the restoration of portions of the site to specific eras, the Battlefield Park Master Plan Review will focus on the conservation, interpretation and presentation of all the elemets of Battlefield Park and its significant historic layers. |
