Corner of Cayuga and King

Cayuga Street between King Street and Hwy #3 is not unlike many small Ontario towns.
After decades of being the hub of activity with hardware stores, drug stores, grocers, clothing shops, the barber ~ usually the Post Office, Library, Village Green and a couple hotels ~ the street falls into neglect as strip malls lure shoppers to new locations.
The events of this past week have drawn people back to the downtown core and shown that with a little planning ~ and a lot of heart ~ downtown Cayuga-On-The-Grand is a fun place to be.

Watching the Parade


The Neat Little Bookshop will re-open after holidays on Wednesday,July 29.

Heritage Haldimand


Heritage Haldimand, formerly known as LACAC,* is a small group of dedicated individuals whose mandate is to identify historic sites and advise municipal council regarding designation for preservation.
*Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committe

Cayuga Street is potentially a streetscape worthy of consideration for designation. A public meeting is scheduled for Thursday, July 23, 2009 for the purpose of planning the future of the downtown business section of Cayuga. Watch for details.
