Heritage Value
The years 1911-1912 saw great expansion and settlement in Burnaby and large public works projects were undertaken to service the growing community. One project that was determined to be a necessity was the construction of a proper highway between New Westminster and Vancouver. The Province and the Municipality agreed to share the costs of construction (with Burnaby paying 25% and the Province 75%) and so Kingsway was built to improve the current Vancouver Road. The road was named after the famous King's Way in London, England.

Photograph of a paved street lined on both sides with curbs and electric poles. There appears to be a car in the distance, as well as an idustrial building on the right-hand side of the road. An earlier catalogue record from 1988 conjectures that the street is Kingsway, probably in Burnaby, between Sperling Avenue and Royal Oak, looking South, and that the building is possibly the Macadam making plant for the company which paved Kingsway.
