Looks like a great place to be, thanks for the sharing

Yes, this is a neat re-creation of how this part of "town" looked in the early 1800's. Thanks! John

A blast from the past. I'm glad you kept the cars out of the shot...
Imagine the perfect day, then pursue it...

John,

Beautiful picture. Great coloring and a very nice title for the post. :)

John - recreations have a way of bringing history to life ... BTW very nice picture ... you could sell it to a postcard company.

Hello Paul, this is one of Vancouver's prized recreation of its early history. For this shot the cars were traveling beneath my feet as I was standing on the then new multi-million dollar pedestrian overpass (SR-14). Thanks! John

Hello Steve, the late afternoon light that day, along with the different elements in the frame made this a keeper for me. Thanks!

Hello Kathy, recreations or the real artifact, out there in real life have so much more impact on our view of history than merely seeing old photographs or drawings. Thanks! John

You really meant it when you said, "Time to head back to the fort". . .Beautiful picture, with nice light!

Hello Myrl, yes indeed, the folks here missed the original fort bad enough they had to make another one! Much fun to visit when you get the chance. Thanks! John
