Rose City Roots · Places map

Memorials and heritage places

A first interactive map of public memorials and heritage sites already discussed on Rose City Roots and the War Chest. Pins are approximate public locations from OpenStreetMap, queried on 10 Nov. 2026. They are for wayfinding, not surveyed points.

What is not on this first map Road closures stay on the existing road closures list. Many closures are stretches of road, not a single point, so they are not pinned here yet. This map uses the free Leaflet library and OpenStreetMap tiles. No paid tour app was used.

    If a pin is wrong, email windsornewsdesk@gmail.com. Source: Nominatim / OpenStreetMap, 10 Nov. 2026 (America/Toronto).
