From early building to a park

The history of the park

on the North West corner of Stanley St. and Assiniboia Ave.

In 1905 George Meldrum set up his hardware in a tent but soonconstructed a 2 storey building which existed until a fire in March 1996 destroyed it.

Over the years many hardware stores occupied the building including:

   

Meldrum and sons,

Meldum, Ellis, Shepperd Co.

(Frank) Hesketh Hardware (& undertaking)

M&M Hardware (H. Muscovitch & D. Munn)

Munn Hardware

Dale Banman Hardware

For many years apartments were upstairs and existed at the time ofthe 1996 fire. The main floor was occupied by Prairie Bake Shop (Mark Steininger) and Kids Connection ( Barb Richea)

 

In 1999 the Cupar Rec. Board with many volunteers built the park that exists today.
