Stanley House B&B is a designated heritage building. It was
built in 1908 as the home for the District Superintendent of the
Canadian Pacific Railway. Stanley House was built on the hill overlooking
the train station and symbolically was the the gateway to the Superintendent's
area of responsibility.
In 1900 the Canadian Pacific Railway demonstrated their confidence
in Nelson's future by making it the site of one of their largest
and most picturesque Swiss Alpine style railway stations.
