False Fronts and Bygone Byways, Vol. 2

Say hello to 2022 with our first livestream of the year! The second half of a two-part presentation, FALSE FRONTS AND BYGONE BYWAYS takes you on a freeform journey through the streets, roads, and buildings of the Arrow Lakes and upper Lardeau over the past 130 years. It’s the second part of our virtual road trip!

In Vol. 2, we’ll start you off in Trout Lake and bring you through Ferguson before heading back down the lake to downtown Nakusp to finish our exploration of Broadway Street. We’ll then head down the lake to visit the Columbia River Narrows and the historic villages of Arrow Park, Burton, Fauquier, Needles, and Edgewood. Along the way, you’ll learn how some of our valley’s roads and streets got their names, see the evolution and development of some of Nakusp’s most notable buildings and businesses, and of course enjoy over 140 classic images of our region.

Join us LIVE Friday, Jan. 21, 2022 at 7 p.m. Pacific time (or anytime you want thereafter!) on our YouTube channel!
