History
The Architectural Conservation Section was created in 1975 as part of the Heritage Administration Branch of the Ontario Ministry of Culture and Recreation.
In the Spring of 1982 the Section, along with the Branch, became part of the new Ontario Ministry of Citizenship and Culture.
In December 1982, the Heritage Administration Branch and the Archaeology and Planning Branch, along with Heritage Trust, were amalgamated to form the new Heritage Branch. With this change, the Architectural Conservation Section was combined with the Heritage Conservation Section (formerly the Heritage Planning Section), to become the Architecture and Planning Unit.
