We gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Province of
British Columbia through BC 150, a Ministry of Tourism, Culture
and the Arts initiative and the Heritage Legacy Fund of British Columbia.

Parts of this website were made possible through a grant in 2008 from the BC150-Heritage Legacy Fund of British Columbia. The grant has enabled the Victoria Heritage Foundation to create interactive maps with photos of each property from our previously published Neighbourhood Heritage Walking Tour brochures.

The grant facilitated a website re-design which contained much more information about Victoria's built heritage including a chronological history of the City and its neighbourhoods; indexes for architects and builders, and a chronological listing of Heritage Registered buildings in the residential neighbourhoods; and an architectural styles guide and glossary. Comprehensive histories with archival photos of all of Victoria's residential neighbourhoods will now be easily accessible.
