MerchantsUpon completion of the CPR Yale settled into a quiet state; she would never regain her previous importance despite a brief resurgence during the Canadian National Railroad construction in 1911-12. The buildings that had once lined the thriving Front Street gradually gave way to rot and disrepair; the majority of these buildings disappeared between 1920 and 1950.
