History
The Port Moody Historical Society was established on June 18, 1969. The mandate of the society was to preserve the history of Port Moody. In 1977 the society purchased the Port Moody CP railway station for one dollar. The building was then moved to Rocky Point Park and declared a heritage building. In 1979 the society established the Museum Restoration Committeee. The building was restored and currently houses the Port Moody Museum and Archives.
