10. Cole Island
Location - British Columbia

We start off with this little known gem. Cole Island was once used by the Royal Navy and the Canadian Royal Navy. It stored ammunition and explosives that were too dangerous to keep at the nearby docks.

At some point, the island had 16 buildings, and when looking at it from the air, it makes you wonder how they fit them all on such a small place. The island outlived its usefulness by the 1900s and became a great spot for vandals and looters. Some went as far as stealing the bricks for their own building projects !

But not all is lost, recently, $180,000 were spared for the island’s makeover !

7.Stanley Park Zoo
Location - British Columbia

6.Dilapidated Home
Location - Ontario

5.Celanese Power House
Location - Alberta

4.Grain Elevators
Location - Alberta
This is not just one site, the countryside of Alberta seems to be littered with delapidated grain elevators.

Like this one in Herronton, a very small town near Calgary. Or this one in Brant.

Grain elevators commonly refer to buildings that store grain, but they can also refer to what we see in these pictures, towers containing bucket elevators that load up containers with grain.

Locals have tried to preserve as much as they can, and have even started the Alberta Grain Elevator Society !

3.Camp 30
Location - Ontario


2.Partridge Island
Location - New Brunswick

This island has quite a long history, located within the city of Saint John, the island was first used as a quarantine station in 1785. It also had a lighthouse and military post on it.

During the Irish Potato Famine it is estimated that around 30,000 people passed through the island for processing, with around 1200 actually dying there. And by 1890, 78,000 immigrants passed through the island a year. The most famous part of the island is the Celtic cross dedicated to those who passed on the island.

There was a museum near the cross that operated until 1995. Since then, the island has become almost a rite of passage for teenagers in the area. With so much to explore, its easy to see how you can be attracted to the haunting past of the land.

1.Queen of Sidney
Location - British Columbia

Ahh the famous Queen of Sidney ! Seriously did not expect this 70 year old abandoned ferry to be such a part of popular culture. It has appeared in the TV Show The Secret Circle, and the Stone Cold Steve Austin film, Damage. Oh it also got a spot on History Channel’s “American Pickers” !

The resting place for the Queen of Sidney is the Silverdale boat graveyard near Vancouver BC. The graveyard has become a bit controversial since no one is taking care of it ! Government agencies are fighting over who exactly owns the property, and no one wants to drop money on cleaning it up or protecting it for that matter !
