  • Report Appendices Only
    DRAFT April 2008 Cultural Heritage Resource Assessment APPENDIX A SUMMARY EURO-CANADIAN HISTORY Thematic Overview of the Focused Analysis Area The first European settlement in the Detroit-Windsor area occurred in the year 1701 when the Sieur De Lamothe Cadillac and approximately 100 military and civilian personnel arrived to found Fort Pontchartrain on the Detroit side of the river. European settlement remained largely on the Detroit side until 1748 when the Jesuit mission to the Huron Indians was established on the south shore near the foot of the present Huron Church Road and the Ambassador Bridge. From 1748 to 1760, a French agricultural settlement developed in this area paralleling a similar settlement across the water. Although Fort Pontchartrain surrendered to the British in 1760 and the Detroit side of the river was again officially surrendered to the United States in 1783, both sides remained under British control until 1796, when U.S. forces took up actual occupation of Detroit. During this period, the settlement continued to grow but remained predominantly French in population. Few buildings from the period of French settlement have survived, although the street pattern of the City still reflects the French method of agricultural land division i.e. long narrow farms fronting the river. In 1797, the original townsite of Sandwich was established to accommodate persons of both French and British origin from the U.S. who wished to remain under British rule following American occupation of Detroit. This constituted the first urban settlement in what is now the City of Windsor, and also the first significant migration of English speaking people into the Windsor area.

  • Detroit River Canadian Cleanup Initiative and Others to Review the Values Upon Which the Detroit River Was Designated and to Assess Their Current Condition
    Monitoring Report 2001 - 2011 Prepared by the Essex Region Conservation Authority May 2013 DETROIT RIVER: A CANADIAN HERITAGE RIVER MONITORING REPORT: 2001-2011 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY “This country is so temperate, so fertile and so beautiful that it may justly be called the earthly paradise of North America.” Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac of the Detroit River, 1702 The Detroit River was nominated to the Canadian Heritage Rivers System (CHRS) in 1999 because of its outstanding human heritage and recreational values. Located in the heart of the Great Lakes, it was designated as a Canadian Heritage River in 2001, becoming the first and only river to receive both Canadian and American Heritage River designations. This report describes activities, research and studies which have occurred on the Detroit River since designation, and tabulates the current condition of natural heritage values, cultural heritage values, recreational values and integrity guidelines against CHRS frameworks. Management objectives identified in the designation document are also tabulated and the degree of achievement noted. The Detroit River is integral to the Windsor-Essex County community and the lives of its residents. This unique international waterway flows through a metropolitan region of over 5 million people, binding the communities which share this precious resource. Thousands of years of First Nations use and 300 years of European settlement have endowed the Detroit River with an exceptional historical character, and the recreational opportunities offered by the river are second to none in The International Target Fireworks show draws hundreds of thousands of North America. As well, over people to both sides of the Detroit River for a shared celebration of our the past decade there have heritage.
