A Bird’s Eye View of Historical Mississauga

Our city has undergone vast changes - both in terms of overall development, and in the sheer number of people who call Mississauga home today. Looking back at images of our not-so-distance past can help to show the scope of change our city has undergone, and aerial images offer a fascinating look at a moment in time on our ever-evolving landscape.
