Description of Property and Heritage Features: Designation shall cover the park property named Victoria Park, including the two cannons from the Crimean War (Sch. C #1), the fountain built in honour of Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee on May 4, 1897(Sch. C #2), the Pipe Band Cairn (Sch. C #3) and historic bell located in front of the former Town Hall building (Sch. C #4), but not the gazebo located in the middle of the park. The designation shall also include specific components of the yellow brick building which was built in 1872. The specific components of the former Town Hall which are to be designated include the historically replicated north end veranda, and historic windows and associated brickwork. It shall include the restored exterior areas of the fagades, storm windows, the wooden doors on the northwest and southwest corners of the building, and northeast corner wooden doors, all the roof gables and the veranda • on the north end of the building. Repair or restoration work performed on the designated areas, which is completed with same material and does not change the look of the restored structure may be performed without prior approval from Heritage Kincardine unless a building permit is required. Regular and required maintenance on the grass, trees and gazebo within the park is acceptable if performed by the Municipality of Kincardine. Areas that do not fall under the designation include the west glass entranceway, entrance way ramp, elevator addition, interlocking brick under the veranda, or any components within the interior of the building. The red brick building (former fire hall) to the south of the historic Town Hall is also not considered a part of the designation. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value: This yellow brick building, completed in 1872, was originally built with municipal offices and a fire hall on the main floor, and an auditorium with a stage on the . second floor. It served as the centre for local political decisions for the former Town of Kincardine for over 100 years; the auditorium was the Town's cultural centre. Much of the original structure was physically modified in the mid 20 century, including replacement of the original windows and removal of the west gable, cupola and veranda. In 1999, amalgamation of the Town of Kincardine with Township of Kincardine and the Township of Bruce saw local political administration relocate to the 5th concession of the former Township of Kincardine and it ceased to be a Town Hall. It subsequently became the home of various arts and culture groups and is now known as the Kincardine Centre for the Arts. An elevator was installed in the mid 2000's on the east side of the building. In 2011, a two year restoration project concluded and saw the restoration of the exterior of this important building back to its original look. • The surrounding park, originally established as a market place in 1850, continues to be one of the most important cultural community gathering locations, hosting farmers' markets as well as the weekly summer Pipe Band Parade.
