by Rebecca Bollwitt

Since the PNE is in full swing this week, today’s archives photo is one of the fair’s lost buildings (and one of the most unique I’ve seen).

The “Women’s Building” at the Vancouver Exhibition (now the PNE). Located on the Hastings fair grounds, this was originally called the Industrial Building in 1910.

Year: 1918
Photographer: Stuart Thomson
Vancouver Archives item#: CVA 99-645
