Resumen de audiotour
Originally settled in the early 1800s, the village of Streetsville developed a strong community identity over the years, with its own local government and distinct character. By 1850, Streetsville was recognized as the “Queen of the County” and flourished with its five major mill sites along a five-mile stretch of the Credit River.
On January 1st, 1974, the Town of Streetsville was amalgamated into the City of Mississauga during a regional restructuring of municipalities in Ontario. Despite this change, Streetsville has retained much of its historic charm and community spirit, continuing to celebrate its unique heritage.
As we celebrate Mississauga’s 50th anniversary of becoming a city, we invite you to explore Streetsville’s rich history, diverse culture, and welcoming spirit. This guide takes us down Queen Street, exploring the many historic buildings and businesses of Streetsville's past.
This guide was created with the support of the Streetsville Historical Society and Heritage Mississauga. We deeply appreciate the invaluable help from both organizations, whose expertise has been key in understanding our history.
