In 1917, the province deeded the remainder of land at First Avenue and Ferguson Street for use as a Memorial Park to commemorate those who gave their lives in the First World War. In 1923, through a series of agreements between the municipal and provincial governments, Memorial Park was created and officially named at the November 11 ceremony that year, with some 4,000 citizens including 100 Veterans in attendance.
