Rename proposal on Muskoka Wharf recognizes historical figure Alexander Cockburn

A local historical group is taking a big step in recognizing a resident from Gravenhurst’s past.

The Town of Gravenhurst recently received a request to rename the gazebo and surrounding area at Muskoka Wharf to A.P. Cockburn Square.

Cockburn enthusiast Mary Storey says this is just the first of many opportunities to recognize the historical figure.

The town is providing residents with a chance to speak to council about this suggested name change.
