  • "Grand Trunk Georgian Bay and Lake Erie Railway Company"
    "Grand Trunk Georgian Bay and Lake Erie Railway Company" Under Ontario Chapter 69, March 4, 1881, Grand Trunk, Georgian Bay and Lake Erie Railway Company was formed by amalgamation of The Port Dover and Lake Huron Railway Company, The Stratford and Huron Railway Company, and Georgian Bay and Wellington Railway Company. In 1881 the line then comprising 92 miles was leased to The Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada. Under Deed of sale dated July 11, 1888, and as authorized by Dominion Chapter 57, May 4, 1888, Grand Trunk, Georgian Bay and Lake Erie Railway Company acquired the Capital Stock, property, franchises, rights and privileges of The South Norfolk Railway Company. Under the Charter granted to this Company, The Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada built the line from Parkhead to Owen Sound (12.40 miles) which was opened for traffic in September 1894. For this purpose Bonds to the extent of $100,000 were issued bearing interest at 5% per annum, the principal falling due March 1, 1934. These Bonds were subsequently retired, and the Mortgage Deed dated May 8, 1894 was discharged in April 1911. AMALGAMATION: Effective April 1, 1893, under Agreement dated October 1, 1892, ratified and confirmed by Dominion Chapter 47, April 1, 1893, Grand Trunk, Georgian Bay and Lake Erie Railway Company and fourteen other companies were amalgamated into one company under the name "The Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada". Georgian Bay & Lake Erie Railway Company Owen Sound Branch The construction of the Owen Sound Branch was authorized by Act 56, Victoria Chapter 49, Dominion of Canada on April 1, 1893 and the line from Parkhead to Owen Sound 12.36 miles was completed and opened for traffic about December 31, 1894.

  • Context Statement
    CONTEXT STATEMENT THE CENTRAL WATERFRONT PREPARED FOR: THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROGRAM DEPARTMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS, CITY OF SEATTLE November 2006 THOMAS STREET HISTORY SERVICES 705 EAST THOMAS STREET, #204 SEATTLE, WA 98102 2 Central Waterfront and Environs - Historic Survey & Inventory - Context Statement - November 2006 –Update 1/2/07 THE CENTRAL WATERFRONT CONTEXT STATEMENT for THE 2006 SURVEY AND INVENTORY Central Waterfront Neighborhood Boundaries and Definitions For this study, the Central Waterfront neighborhood covers the waterfront from Battery Street to Columbia Street, and in the east-west direction, from the waterfront to the west side of First Avenue. In addition, it covers a northern area from Battery Street to Broad Street, and in the east- west direction, from Elliott Bay to the west side of Elliott Avenue. In contrast, in many studies, the Central Waterfront refers only to the actual waterfront, usually from around Clay Street to roughly Pier 48 and only extends to the east side of Alaskan Way. This study therefore includes the western edge of Belltown and the corresponding western edge of Downtown. Since it is already an historic district, the Pike Place Market Historic District was not specifically surveyed. Although Alaskan Way and the present shoreline were only built up beginning in the 1890s, the waterfront’s earliest inhabitants, the Native Americans, have long been familiar with this area, the original shoreline and its vicinity. Native Peoples There had been Duwamish encampments along or near Elliott Bay, long before the arrival of the Pioneers in the early 1850s. In fact, the name “Duwamish” is derived from that people’s original name for themselves, “duwAHBSH,” which means “inside people,” and referred to the protected location of their settlements inside the waters of Elliott Bay.1 The cultural traditions of the Duwamish and other coastal Salish tribes were based on reverence for the natural elements and on the change of seasons.

Artist unknown, ca. 1912. (Ottawa City Archives, CA7633) Figure 1 (right). Chateau Frontenac Hotel, Quebec City, 1892-93; Bruce Price, architect. (CP Corporate Archives, A-4989) TX ~h the construction of the Chateau Frontenac Hotel in 1892-93 on the heights of r r Quebec City (figure 1), American architect Bruce Price (1845-1903) introduced the chateau style to Canada. Built for the Canadian Pacific Railway, the monumental hotel estab­ lished a precedent for a series of distinctive railway hotels across the country that served to as­ sociate the style with nationalist sentiment well into the 20th century.1 The prolonged life of the chateau style was not sustained by the CPR, however; the company completed its last chateauesque hotel in 1908, just as the mode was being embraced by the CPR's chief com­ petitor, the Grand Trunk Railway. How the chateau style came to be adopted by the GTR, and how it was utilized in three major hotels- the Chateau Laurier Hotel in Ottawa, the Fort Garry Hotel in Winnipeg, and the Macdonald Hotel in Edmonton -was closely related to the background and rise to prominence of the architects, Montreal natives George Allan Ross (1879-1946) and David Huron MacFarlane (1875-1950). According to Lovell's Montreal City Directory, 1900-01, George Ross2 worked as a draughtsman in the Montreal offices of the GTR, which was probably his first training in ar­ chitecture, and possibly a consideration when his firm later obtained the contracts for the GTR hotels.
