Campaign Underway to Rebuild Nanaimo Station

The Young Professionals of Nanaimo are well on the way to raising the funds to rebuild Nanaimo’s historic station that was razed by fire in 2007.
YPN is aiming to raise more than $1 million to restore the station to the look and standards of its 1920s hey day.
There are lots of good reasons for leading the station revitalization, says YPN president Andre Sullivan, including retaining history, culture and revitalizing Nanaimo’s town core. But topping the list is supporting ICF’s goal of sustainable green transportation.
“ICF has the ambitious goal of sustainable rail on Vancouver Island,” says Sullivan. “It’s up to each community to provide a station.”
