Object History: Early Burnaby as recalled by the settlers themselves who arrived from every corner of the world between 1888 and 1930, some witnessing incorporation of the district in 1892, all seeking a better life for themselves and especially for their children, all helping transform the wilderness into the modern municipality of today.

Place of Publication: Burnaby, BC

Publisher: City of Burnaby

Publication Date: [1961]

Subjects: Government - Local Government; Public Services - Municipal Services

Notes: In 1958, the Corporation of the District of Burnaby embarked on an address re-numbering project. Burnaby's new address system was a numerical continuation of the Vancouver system. The project included East Burnaby which had previously worked off of the New Westminster address system. This was problematic due to the diagonal grid system that New Westminster and East Burnaby was based off of.; The project was completed in two phases: From 1958 to 1959, and 1960 to 1961.
