The City of Winnipeg archives are a link to our past. Among other things, they include records from the first city council meeting, pictures of the 1950 flood, and mementos from sporting events.

But the archives have been in a temporary location since 2013, and as the years go by some worry the plan for a permanent home will become a thing of the past too.

The treasures of Winnipeg's past are currently located in an industrial section of Winnipeg inside what retired history professor Tom Nesmith describes as “a big tin can.”
