Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Prince Rupert Dry Dock and Shipyard : The Grand Trunk Pacific applied to the Dominion Government in 1909 for a subsidy in order to construct a floating dry dock and a shipyard at Prince Rupert. The subsidy was granted in 1911 and construction of a shipyard and a floating dry dock of 20,000 tons capacity was started in 1913 and completed in 1917. Construction and operation were undertaken by the Pacific Development Company, Limited. Prior to World War II only local repair and overhaul work was undertaken. Major ship construction and repair was done between 1940 and 1945. Following 1945 the property operated at a loss and was closed on 30 September 1954. The Grand Trunk Pacific terminus, Prince Rupert, did not exist until the railway built from it and was, in its early days, very much a "company town". RG30 General Inventory
