Murray from Heritage Conservation
Listen now
Description
Murray Peterson is the Heritage Officer with Planning, Property and Development. Armed with a degree in history and a manual typewriter, Murray's career with the City began in 1987. According to City policy, if Murray's career was a building, it would nearly qualify for heritage designation. It's not quite 40 years old, but it is rare with defining characteristics. As Murray describes the buildings he helped save -- and the ones he had to let go -- he has us looking at Winnipeg architecture in a whole new way. This podcast is recorded in Treaty One Territory, the home and traditional lands of the Anishinaabe, Ininew, and Dakota peoples, and in the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We acknowledge that our drinking water comes from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation, in Treaty Three Territory.   What programs and services impact you the most?

Diplômé en histoire et équipé d’une machine à écrire, Murray a entamé sa carrière à la Ville en 1987. Selon la politique de la Ville, si la carrière de Murray était un bâtiment, elle pourrait presque recevoir la désignation de bâtiment patrimonial. Elle n’a pas tout à fait 40 ans, mais elle est rare et a des caractéristiques distinctives. Quand Murray décrit les bâtiments qu’il a aidé à sauver – et ceux qu’il a dû abandonner – il nous inspire à poser un regard nouveau sur l’architecture de Winnipeg. Ce balado est enregistré sur le territoire visé par le Traité no 1, le berceau et territoire traditionnel des peuples anishinaabe, ininew et dakota, et les terres ancestrales nationales des Métis de la Rivière-Rouge. Nous reconnaissons que notre eau potable provient de la Première Nation Shoal Lake, no 40, qui est située sur le territoire visé par le Traité no 3.   Quels programmes et services vous touchent le plus?
