Small groups and individuals are encouraged to test their knowledge of Peterborough’s architecture for a chance to win prizes. The contest consists of identifying 36 architectural details on buildings in a defined area of the city. All details are visible from public areas and both sides of the street are in play.

Booklets are available at the City Hall reception desk, 500 George Street North Monday - Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.

An online form, including a map of the area where all the architectural details can be found, is available here.

Prizes will be awarded for the correct identification of the most architectural elements on the clue sheet. This year’s prizes will feature gift cards from local businesses.
