Napier, Ontario - Napier Today

Napier Today

Napier is worth visiting since many heritage landmarks remain. From the south, the first interesting building is a Masonic Temple built in 1955, replacing a previous building. On its lawn is a millstone that came from Sutherland's gristmill. Next door is St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church and across the road is the Napier House, now in poor condition. Farther north on Mary Street is the old school, later a Women's Institute. North along Napier Road is Melwood Drive. A right turn will lead to St. Mary's Anglican Church on the left side.

Famous quotes containing the words napier and/or today:

    Parenting is a profoundly reciprocal process: we, the shapers of our children’s lives, are also being shaped. As we struggle to be parents, we are forced to encounter ourselves; and if we are willing to look at what is happening between us and our children, we may learn how we came to be who we are.
    —Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)

    A hundred things are done today in the divine name of Youth, that if they showed their true colours would be seen by rights to belong rather to old age.
    Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)
