| Title: | Newsclipping - "Winnipeg's old architecture is valuable heritage" |
| Collections: | Winnipeg Tribune fonds Landmarks, Monuments & Built Heritage of the West |
| Description: | A Winnipeg Tribune article by Jan Kamienski, the Tribune Art Editor, published 1 March 1975. It is a critique of the civic officials allowing the destruction of so many historic buildings to make way for newer and less interesting ones. The author suggests that heritage buildings not only add to the character of the city, but that they also increase tourism to the city. He cites examples such as Paris, San Francisco, and Montreal, as cities that maintain heritage buildings in order to maintain their history and character to develop their sense of uniqueness and the tourism dollar. |
