This magnificent turn of the century building was constructed in 1908, the same year as the great fire. The building has seen numerous tenants during it's life, most notably as the Post Office for the City of Fernie.
The Fernie Post Office relocated to a new, smaller building in 1974, directly across the street from this building.
Today this building is used as the local public library.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing Canada Post waymark, you will need to post a unique picture of the Canada Post sign. Including your gps device in the picture is not neccesary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
