VICTORIA PARK COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN
Heritage and Culture
The heritage and cultural designation zone delineates the areas of the park where
the predominant activity is the celebration and protection of the Park’s existing
cultural or heritage assets, such as Fort Edward or the location of the meridian stones.
Within these areas, other activities may take place, so long as they do not impact the
designated heritage and cultural assets.
Within this zone, intensity of usage may be high, compounded by the relatively small
areas of each discrete area. Any specific alterations or improvements in this zone must
be consistent with the historical value of the landscape, and the visitor experience
that is desired. The use of site interpretation in the heritage and cultural zone is more
prevalent than in other areas of the park, due to the nature of the assets found.
Management Plan Matrix
To guide management decisions and guide resource allocations, maintenance schedules, and
capital investment, many of the ongoing management or operational tasks or programs have
been identified in a series of zone-specific management matrices. These matrices outline
both existing and proposed facilities, their objective, tasks, frequency and associated time
frames. For proposed physical projects, additional detail and information may be found in
subsequent chapters of this document.
