The virtual tour is located at waterloo.ca/park-stories and each tour stop is marked with a pin.
The information we share through this activity is a one sided story built from current archival sources know by city staff and volunteers. These stories are only small pieces of information and do not encompass all aspects of the history of this land. Over time, it is our intention to learn and grow so we can understand a more full and inclusive story of the past and share these stories. To understand all stories we must go through a proper and meaningful process to ensure all knowledge holders and storytellers have had an opportunity to participate in this discussion process.
We hope you enjoy the tour!
