In 1835, Upper Fort Garry began a 50-year reign as the centre for trade, the site of significant historic events and a true gateway to the West.
Today, exciting plans are underway to reclaim and transform this historic legacy, at Main Street and Assiniboine, into a world class heritage park and interpretive centre for all Manitobans and visitors. Ideal for education, tourism and downtown revitalization!
To date, more than $3.5 million from the public has been raised and the campaign continues.
Every gift big and small is important as the March 31, 2008 deadline approaches. That¹s because every gift represents the will of the public to retain this site and will hopefully encourage all levels of government to ensure that this project becomes reality.
NOW IS THE TIME TO CREATE A FUTURE
FOR UPPER FORT GARRY
