On November 23, Council approved the addition of
four buildings to the City's official Community Heritage Register:
--
COWMAN RESIDENCE (150 KENNEDY STREET)

The Community Heritage Register is an official list of
properties identified by the City as having heritage value. Council adopted the
City’s first official Community Heritage Register in 2002. At that time, the
Register included 140 buildings, 6 cemeteries, and 6 structures. Council has
since amended the Register by adding 29 buildings, 3 structures, 2 sites, and
removing 9 buildings due to demolition.
You can search the Heritage Register online, or request a paper copy through the Culture & Heritage
Department. The public is welcome to submit nominations to the Register using
the attached nomination form.
"The Heritage Register forms the
foundation of our Heritage Conservation Program, and tells Nanaimo's story
through its historical buildings, structures and sites." - Bill McKay Mayor City of Nanaimo
