Why this is on the board
Fort Townshend National Historic Site of Canada (near the centre, St. John's) is how this part of St. John's remembers something. You get one date and one name — a piece of the street that does not show up in a listicle.
Safety. Public ground only. Map data goes stale — if a rail, hour, or closure disagrees, leave. Not a guided tour.
