Burlington Ontario has undergone many changes over the years. From the tiny village of Wellington Square to the vibrant city we know and love today. To see the Burlington we used to have, we plan on having a Then & Now section as well as a collection of old Burlington photographs. Please feel free to add any old photographs or postcards that you may have!

From the book The Prints of Aldershot -

There have been a great many changes in the Aldershot area since this photograph was taken, with Kings Road School dominating the landscape. The school is actually located on Greenwood Drive rather than King Rd.

That’s King Road running left to right across the photograph and Kingsway Drive just above it and abutting the Burlington Golf and Country Club.

From the out-of-print book Prints Along the Beach -

It was a hot summer day in July, 1941 when hundreds of youngsters took to their bicycles to pedal out to the lakefront to enjoy a dip in Lake Ontario just east of the filtering basins.

While the sandy beach is a sea of bikes and sunbathers, you can also see a long line of cars edged up to the sand.

From the book Vanished Burlington -

One of the most popular photos from this book is of the Old Neilson's sign and the Esso station at Wolfe Island.

An imposing structure that has been gone for many decades, it not only advertised the chocolate bar but also provided simple directions to Toronto.

From the out-of-print book Memories of Burlington -

When this photograph of the Kilbride general store in north Burlington was taken in 1950, it had already been in operation for nearly 100 years.

At one time, when Kilbride was at the centre of activity for the area, the store was so busy that six clerks were employed and on the upper floor, a tailor shop and millinery department were in full operation.

Do you have memories of Brant Street? We'd love to hear them! Museums of Burlington is developing a new exhibition opening in summer 2027 that will explore the history of Brant Street.

We're looking for community members who remember Brant Street from years past and would be willing to share their stories through a 5–10 minute oral history interview. Whether you remember shopping downtown, meeting friends, attending parades, working for a local business, or simply spending time on Brant Street, your memories can help preserve Burlington's history for future generations.

Interviews will take place between August and October 2026 at a time and location that works for you. If you're interested in participating, please complete this form. >> https://ow.ly/qsuI50ZnT7S
