Help us explore options for the future sustainability of Hillary House National Historic Site.

The Town received a request from the Aurora Historical Society to discuss options for the long-term sustainability of the Hillary House, located at 15372 Yonge St. The Hillary House has been maintained and preserved by a volunteer board, its membership and community volunteers, but is now facing steeper challenges as the building continues to age and the volunteer base is dwindling. The Aurora Historical Society is looking to work together with the Town to explore options for the future sustainability of the building and property.

As we contemplate a variety of different options for Hillary House, we are looking for public feedback. The intent of the survey is to explore options for the use of the Hillary House while continuing to recognize that the property will be preserved over the long-term for future generations.

For project specific questions please contact Robin McDougall at rmcdougall@aurora.ca.

For any other heritage designation or built heritage questions specifically, please contact Adam Robb, arobb@aurora.ca

This survey is for informational purposes only, and no physical alterations are currently proposed for the Hillary House.
