there is strong interest in

But the wooden floor is solid
and new wood has been plac­
ed in the roof for support.
An old wood stove is still
there, along with tghe faded
lettering : “Boat Works: Kishi
and Brothers.”
Although local fishermen
complain that closing the
building will froce them to
travel to Ladner or further for
repairs, B.C. Packers vicepresident Richard Gregory
said there are other shops
with wood-boats expertise in
Steveston.
He also said B.C., Packers
would be pleased to donate
the building to Richmond
municipality or any heritage
group.
The council said in its sub­
mission that “along a twomile stretch of waterfront
there can be found areas that
are still standing since the
sailing ships came around
the Horn for salmon, before
the turn of the century.
“Recent visitors from the
National Georgraphic society
expressed the view that this
is the only stretch of water­
front in North American
where the orginal L-shaped
canneries and wharves, de­
signed to berth three-masted
sailing ships, have not been
replaced with rip-rap dikes
and a sterile environment of
gravel and blacktop.”
The council said more than
20 waterfront buildings and
many wharves and boatways
have already been destroyed
during the past 10 years, in­
cluding “a China bunkhouse
and Japanese bunkhouse
built for immigrant workers.
These buildings were in ex­
cellent condition considering
their age and were used by
local fishermen for net
storage.
“In the next three or four
months, B.C. Packers intend
to demolish most of their
buildings along their halfmile of waterfront.”
Council said the eastern
half of the Steveston Channel
waterfront is owned by the
federal government and “is
also subject to demolition as
part of a harbor redevelop­
ment program.”
Council also said new de­
velopment would threaten
fish-rearing habitats.

of 50 footprints believed to be
those of five types of dino­
saurs.
The researchers said the
footprints were marked on
one exposed layer of the
sandstone. The stone's layer
is believed to date back to the
early Cretaceous period in
the Mesozoic era (about 120
million years ago).
Among the footprints, the
largest is 57-cm long, 39-cm
wide and 25-cm deep.
The researchers said they
were unable to identify the
types of dinosaurs because
the surface of the sandstone
has been eroding. The cur­
rent surface was exposed 20
years ago in the course of
road construction.
They theorize that the dino­
saur that left the largest foot­
print must have been 4 to 5
meters tail, considering its
strides and the depth of the
pits it left.
Obata said the dinosaur­
might have been a member of
the Megalosaurus family, a
large meat-eating dinosaur.
