Pioneers and early businesses
The Northern Railway was built in 1853 and ran from Toronto to Collingwood. For many years, the station located in Concord was called the Thornhill Railway Station. In 1854, the Concord Post Office was established and John Duncan served as the first postmaster for 17 years until 1871.

In 2007, the City of Vaughan began building a corporate art collection destined to animate key public areas of Vaughan City Hall, Vaughan Public Libraries and civic partnership venues. Currently, 79 permanent acquisitions are housed in the City’s growing Art Integration Collection.
The City of Vaughan is developing the administrative framework to support building and profiling a dynamic corporate collection of civic art installed in the public realm. As the implementation of the City Wide Public Art Program evolves, the inventory of City-owned public art acquisitions will be featured on this page.
