Historic Places Days offer a chance to explore and showcase the places and stories that are important to us. The set of days is celebrated all over Canada and is hosted as a National Trust for Canada by a collection of events. From July 11-20, 2025, we invite
you to celebrate the theme, “Every Place, A Story.” We encourage you to find and visit your favorite historic places and learn their stories.<img id="image_0" width="371" height="248" style="width: 371.818px; height: 248px; max-width: 1366px;" src="https://www.vancouverheritagefoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/MKPhoto-6378-1024x683.jpg"></div>

From 1891 to 1954, the BC Electric interurban Central Park Line ran between New Westminster and Vancouver. It served the populations of Vancouver, Burnaby and New Westminster as they moved from place to Place. At its peak the Central Park Line operated with
16 Stations. Following some of those stations from west to east, this set of walks will be exploring the history, heritage and legacy of BC Electric interurban Central Park line. This tour will explore the area around the Nanaimo Road Station.</p>
