Kleinburg-Nashville Heritage Conservation District

Preserving and maintaining the history and integrity of Vaughan’s communities is an important part of what makes the city a dynamic and attractive place to live, work and play.

The City of Vaughan originated from the amalgamation of several rural villages: Woodbridge, Kleinburg-Nashville, Maple and Thornhill which, together with surrounding countryside, were incorporated in 1974 to create the Town of Vaughan. These villages were established in the 19th century following a long history of indigenous habitation and First Nations settlement along the river valleys and trails. The City of Vaughan has recognized the heritage value of its historic communities, including Kleinburg-Nashville, through designation as a Heritage Conservation District (HCD) under the Ontario Heritage Act. A Heritage Conservation District designation is an important tool for protecting the heritage character of a community and managing change, and is accompanied by a Heritage Conservation District Study and Plan.
