2. Historic Bassano, Alberta (2013)
Bassano has a proud history, and nowhere is this more evident than in the architecture found in the community. I grew up 30 minutes from here, and I had no idea until this summer what a collection of heritage buildings there were to be found in town. This is odd considering a year earlier we stayed at the Imperial Hunter Hotel, an old C.P.R. hotel chock full of historic artifacts from the days of Sam Whiting when Bassano was “the logical and recognized centre of Canada’s great inland empire“.

We cannot believe that we found this on your site. Sam Whiting is our Great Uncle and we have a photo of Sam’s brother Clifford sitting in the Bassano Office. He is our Grandfather.
We would like to have more information from the related sites. We’re very excited to have found you.
