Form and function have guided architectural choices in the built environment for millennia, but the
styles and designs of our structures have changed dramatically over time. Ontario's architectural heritage
is evident in the farmscapes that anchor agricultural landscapes, the bridges that carry rails and roads
over waterways and tracks, and the multi-storey towers in sprawling urban centres.
