Located in Maple Ridge between the Lougheed Highway and Haney Bypass at 22520 116th Ave. The museum is housed in the former manager's home for Port Haney Brick & Tile. We are a community museum featuring First Nations Prehistory, history of settlement and prominent families and feature a world-class model railway diorama of the Port Haney area at the height of the railway logging era.

Maple Ridge Maps available online
Check out our Flickr site at http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrcommunityarchives/sets/72157623623451661/ to see maps from 1930 and 1950. The 1930 map shows the district prior to the construction of the Lougheed Highway and the 1950 map shows it after the highway but before we changed to modern grid names. Both maps have been scanned in segments to allow for greater detail. Look at the file names for identification, for example 1930 SW will show you the SW quadrant of the municipality - the Hammond area. Enjoy!
