The Legacy Beacon

Windsor, Ontario

Architecttura played a key role in bringing Streetcar No. 351 back to life—now on display inside the Legacy Beacon at 780 Riverside Drive West. Originally built in 1918 this remarkable streetcar is 50 feet long and weighs 24,688 pounds. It now stands as the focal point of a purposefully designed, all-electric facility—built without natural gas—demonstrating our commitment to environmentally responsible, climate-conscious design. It’s a stunning tribute to Windsor’s rich transportation history and a must-see for locals and visitors alike.
