It was first erected on piles driven into the Bank close to the water s Edge so that a gang Plank could be Laid from a Steamer to the door or the warehouse for the convenience of passengers in Landing and for unloading freight. The Wash of the River proved too Strong and the piles were displaced and Canadian Pac Lilc Surveyor Frank Moberly contracted with the company to put in a truss foundation.

Among the most noted brides to make her entry through that old warehouse to the Gateway City of the West was lady Mcmillan. No doubt there were nukes in Many of the girlish hearts is they walked across the floor of that old warehouse to the untried future on the Frontier of Canadian civilization but if so they were bravely hidden and eternity Only will Tell the Talp.
