Leslie Log House in Mississauga

Ontario Real Estate Source

By Brian Madigan LL.B.

There is now a new museum in Mississauga. You probably already know about Benares and the Bradley House. The Leslie Log House is the third museum in Mississauga,

 

There is an advantage here, since it houses the Streetsville Historical Society.

 

The building is now open to the public on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons. Drop in for a quick tour. Admission is free.

 

The house is quite historical in nature having been constructed in 1826 on Mississauga Road north of Derry. It was moved to its present location at 4415 Mississauga Road  (between Burnhamthorpe and Eglinton) in 1994. All the renovations have now been completed.

 

The main room can be rented through the city of Mississauga for special functions. In boardroom format, it seats about 12 and in classroom format it can host about 20.

 

It is located on city property backing onto the Credit river valley and has access to walking trails.

Brian.  The Leslie House is they type of thing that we should be preserving.  I am glad that the administrators have decided to rent out the main room.  Any financial support is always needed.

Brian, kudos to Mississauga for preserving this piece of history.  Earlier this year, we were at a celebration at the Old Pumphouse in Grimsby, renovated after a newer bigger pumphouse was constructed, and available for rent to the public... The Leslie House might be the perfect venue for an intimate gathering.

Valerie and Chris,

It's fairly close to me (actually walking distance) so I was thinking of renting it when I need a place to host a meeting.

Brian - It looks like a good size if you are offering a course with a smaller expected attendance than high demand courses.

Marc,

I actually prefer 20 people to the larger 60 to 100 format.
