They faced a huge challenge originally by horse drawn coaches and later by motor in building a railroad through terrain that included bus.

They Canada had insisted that they build their line along the had achieved their goal but there was considerable more difficult southern route to assist in maintaining difficulty with the sailing ships of the day navigating Canadian sovereignty. At the time, there was a threat through the long fjord of Burrard Inlet from English from the United States referred to as “54/40 or fight” Bay to Port Moody so management elected to extend for the Canadian territory that was located between the the line to Vancouver.

Hotel, located on the southwest corner of Georgia and Granville Streets, opened on 16 May 1888. The Railway Hotels of Vancouver The settlement and subsequent development of Western Canada occurred when the railways were built into territory that had previously been remote wilderness. Many of the small communities that came into existence because of the railway relied on the company for transportation, communication, mail service, delivery of merchandise and very often employment. The railway companies provided the people living in those communities with virtually everything needed that they didn’t produce for themselves. The only form of transportation other than the railroad was horse and buggy so the train became their lifeline. Every man woman and child was familiar with the huffing and chuffing of the huge, powerful coal fired steam engines that hauled the trains. The sound that was created went on for 24 hours a day and 7 days of the 124 Vancouver Exposed: A History in Photographs crews working on the construction of the railway. To make the project worth while for the CPR, the Federal government agreed to make very substantial grants of crown land along the right of way as construction proceeded. Superintendent Samuel Benfield Steele of the NWMP was put in charge of security and construction proceeded. Because they were planning to take passengers into an area where there was no food or hotel services of any kind, the CPR had to provide hotel, restaurant and local ground transportation for their clients. This fact and the desire that they had to be the very best resulted in the development and construction of a line of excellent quality hotels that became known as the “Chateaus.” The grand dining rooms of the hotels designed by Thomas Sorby on the recommendation of Cornelius Van Horne, the General Manager of the CPR. The design was a five story brick building. Construction began on July 22, 1886 and was completed with the hotel opening May 16, 1888 a year after the arrival of the first train. It was closed permanently when the new Vancouver Hotel opened in 1916. By 1900 the directors of the CPR concluded that the first Hotel Vancouver was too small and needed to be replaced with a larger and more elegant structure. Property was chosen at the intersections of Georgia and Granville Street extending to the southeast corner of Georgia and Howe Street. The corner was considered to be ideal for a number of reasons; firstly it had the highest elevation of any The Railroaders 125 This photograph was taken from the top floor or possibly even the roof top of the first Hotel Vancouver to the northwest with the intersection of Georgia & Howe Streets in the foreground.

From Winnipeg the route chosen was northern via Saskatoon, Edmonton, and Jasper and then through the Yellowhead pass to Prince George Francis M. Rattenbury, the renowned architect who had designed with a terminal planned for Prince Rupert. Work commenced in the Parliament Buildings and Empress Hotel in Victoria (a CPR 1905. The services of architect Francis M. Rattenbury were retained Hotel) and the Vancouver Courthouse was retained to prepare plans to design high quality deluxe hotels along the route that would for an entirely new deluxe Italian Renaissance Hotel on the location. He submitted the plans to the CPR who commenced work on the The second C.P.R.

Work had been halted because the management of CPR had been unable to obtain permission to build their new hotel to the desired height of 228 feet. At the time, a Vancouver City ordinance allowed a Risk takers pose for a photograph 150 feet above ground during the construction of the second C.P.R. Hotel. maximum building height of only 120 feet so the clever Rattenbury made the plans so they could be altered if the ordinance were to be changed. Construction remained dormant until 1912 when the City of Vancouver finally granted permission to the CPR to build their hotel to the height of 228 feet. Francis W. Swales, an architect with Painter & Swales Architects (a New York Company) who was born in Canada but practiced his profession in the USA was engaged to re-work Rattenbury’s plans and include the necessary modifications to utilize the space that had been allowed by the amended city ordinance. Work commenced again in 1913 and was completed in 1916. The hotel was intended to provide first class accommodation to businessmen and wealthy tourists, some of whom would be continuing their travel on the Empress Liners. The new Vancouver hotel was absolutely magnificent in every way. It was a very deluxe building with beautifully carved mahogany and oak paneling in the many conference rooms and ballrooms. In addition to the many wonderful rooms within the hotel, the CPR built and incorporated the Vancouver Opera House as part of the structure. The Oak Room at Christmas with its beautiful crystal chandeliers, vaulted ceilings more than 20 feet high and artistic wood paneling on the walls was prepared each year for family entertainment with and a huge Christmas tree fully decorated and Santa in his red suit and beard passing out favors to the children. The hotel remained as an elegant 128 Vancouver Exposed: A History in Photographs The Railroaders 129 The third Hotel Vancouver, located at Hornby and Georgia Streets, nears completion in time for the official opening by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth [the Queen Mother of Queen Elizabeth 11 and Princess Margaret] on 29 May 1939 be as good as or better than the already established CPR chain of hotels. Hays claimed that the route chosen would be greatly beneficial to trade with Asia because the Port of Prince Rupert was an excellent deep water port with none of the problems for navigation like the narrows with their rip tides entering the Vancouver harbor. It was miles closer to Asia than Vancouver where the CPR had their terminal. The grade through the Yellowhead pass was much gentler and thereby more economical and safer in operation and maintenance than the route chosen by the CPR. Hays believed that Prince Rupert would become a larger metropolitan city than Vancouver, Victoria or New Westminster because of the proximity to Asia and the vast market potential there for Canadian exports – in particular the export of grain, the best of which was grown in the area served by Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. He assured his shareholders that the company would build, own and operate its own telegraph line, handle the express, freight, passenger and mail business and provide the very best of hotels and restaurants. Negotiations were commenced to purchase a fleet of ocean liners to sail the Pacific Ocean to Asia and the South Pacific. He asked Francis Rattenbury to design a Chateau style grand hotel to be linked to the deep water steamship docks and form the central focal point of a great city. The hotel would be called The Hotel Prince Rupert and would be equipped to provide the very best of dining, entertaining, and hotel services for the passengers of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and the citizens of Prince Rupert. As the CPR had done in Vancouver, they built their own wharf and terminals in the Port of Prince Rupert. A dry dock was completed in 1913 and Francis Rattenbury His Royal Highness King George VI's official portrait taken in 1939 is proudly displayed in the Bessborough Armory.

Hays wanted the buildings to be impressive enough to shine as the western terminus of his Railway. The B.C. Government constructed a hospital, fire hall and high school. Prince Rupert was now ready for the last spike to be driven at Fraser Lake that was expected sometime in 1914.

The Duke of Kent, a younger brother of the king, visited Canada and drove the car in 1941. Prince Charles and Princess Diana rode in the car into BC Place Stadium to open Expo 86. Finally, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip rode in the car for the opening of the Commonwealth Games in 1994 and their son Prince Edward rode in the car to close the games.

A number of other Canadian railroads were encountering major hotels in Vancouver would be a disaster for both the same problems caused by the war and other pressures affecting with the economy the way it was. Collectively, the troika In the years following, the CPR bought the entire hotel the economy of Canada. The Canadian Federal Government decided decided that the best option was to finish the new hotel to salvage the railways that were suffering from lack of funds and that belonged to the CNR as the Vancouver Hotel, close create a national railway system to be called The Canadian National the existing Vancouver Hotel that belonged to the CPR Railways. The Grand Trunk Pacific was taken over as well as a and open the new hotel as a joint venture of the CNR competitive railway, The Canadian Northern Railway, a company and CPR. It is an interesting aside that the CPR ceded with its terminal and head office located on the false creek flats in title to their Vancouver Hotel to gain equity in the new Vancouver. They had built their line from the False Creek Flats of hotel property in Canada. They then ventured into the United States hotel market. The CPR eventually purchased the Fairmont chain of hotels and then put the majority of their Canadian hotels under the Fairmont name. The Vancouver Hotel is now The Fairmont Vancouver Hotel. along the Grandview Cut and then up the Fraser Canyon to Red Pass Junction where it intersected the Grand Trunk Pacific line. By this time the roaring twenties were under way, the stock markets were booming, businesses were expanding in every direction and all cautions were out the window. The management of the newly created CNR decided that it would be for more sensible to route their main line of trains from Red Pass Junction to Vancouver and use the Grandview Cut and the terminal of the Canadian Northern Railway. When this occurred, progress and development in Prince Rupert ground to a halt. The line west from Red Pass junction became a secondary spur line serving the small communities from Prince George Prince Rupert. The majority of the CNR traffic went to Vancouver. It was the roaring twenties and the economy was booming. The CNR had constructed a new terminal in Vancouver and were anxious to build the grand hotel that Francis Rattenbury had created for Prince Rupert. They acquired property at the corner of Burrard and Georgia Streets, retained the services of architects John S. Archibald and John Schofield and commenced construction. It isn’t known if Archibald and Schofield created an entirely new design or if they modified the existing plans that had been created for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway by Francis Rattenbury. 132 chain owned by the CNR and became the largest holder Vancouver Exposed: A History in Photographs The The Railroaders 133 John Hendry Park encircles Trout Lake, the source of water for the Hastings Saw Mill. Also visible in this photograph is the Grandview Cut, a joint venture between the Great Northern and the Canadian Northern Railways in 1904. When the Canadian National Railway was created, it took over the Canadian Northern and the Grandview Cut was shared by the Canadian National Railway and the Great Northern Railway. When the Canadian National Railway built their new terminal it was located beside the Great Northern Terminal on Station Street in the False Creek Flats. The earth that was removed from the cut was used to fill in the eastern portion of False Creek to be used as rail yards for the railway. The topsoil for Thornton Park adjacent to Pacific Central Station was brought in by rail car from Chilliwack. 134 The Logging Industry 135 w w w. l o rd c o . c o m OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK WITH OVER 90 LOCATIONS ACROSS BC # 59 - 100 Mile House 165 FIRST STREET P.O.
