What can they do with a nice old train station when the train companies go out of business? This one was made into a library, and like the original train station, the roof is slate, the gutters are copper, and the doors are made of white oak


The Mount Pleasant Community Centre is in a restored historical Canadian Pacific Railway station that has been converted into a cultural facility in the Mount Pleasant Village Square. 

It was built way back in 1902, and closed by CP Rail in 1969 when it had outlived its original use.

      agreed! Historic buildings, cool architectural style, and already paid for... why the hell not give them the needed upgrades, and used them as libraries?
