Collingwood shipyard
area will be developed
On May 6 we mentioned the demise of
Collingwood Shipyard after 103 years.
But a new ara is in store for that town as
The CSL Group Inc. announces it will
spend $80 million to redevelop 43, acres of
its former shipyard property.
To be dubbed "The Shipyards", the
development will , be a combination of
recreational, residential and commer-
cial enterprises.
In the plans are an international class
hotel, marina, condominiums, offices
• and retail shops. There will be public
roads and walkways, and a lookout park
on the water. Two architecturally signifi-
cant shipyard buildings — the old
machine and boiler shops , - will be
preserved and incorporated ,into the
development.
But to shipping buffs, the noteworthy
news is that CSL is exploring the idea of
permanently installing a ship at the site.
The April issue of CSL's newspaper
"The World" states that the company
"...has identified a Great Lakes con-
tainer ship which it would like to berth
permanently in the launching basin" at
the old shipyard. If building codes can be
met, walkways would pass through the
sides of the ship and interior space might
be used for restaurants, shops, theatre,
marine museum, or exhibit centre.
Now comes the question: which ship
will it be? By container ship, does CSL
actually mean package freighter, of
which it has several? If so, surely it
would be one which was actually built at
Collingwood.
SHTHEIPWATCHER'=
By Dick With
Of the eight inactive CSL lake vessels,
one package freighter, MV Fort
Chambly, was built in Collingwood in
.1961. She is 463 feet long with a 56 -foot
beam, and in the style . of package
freighters has wide cargo doors, in her •
sides. Her entire superstructure is
located aft.
Her former sister ship, the' Fort York,
built in Collingwood in 1958, is lying vir-
tually, derelict at Sarnia, her pairft peel-
ing and hull rusting. Persumably she'
would be ideal for the purpose. The
forkner CSL steamship last operated a
couple of years ago as a push -barge, hav,.
ing a large V cut in her stern to accept
the bow of a big tug. She has been tied up
below the Bluewater Bridge since her
last owners ran into financial trouble.
Another possibility which this writer
would like to see preserved is the hand-
some old straight -decked bulk freighter
Sir James Dunn. CSL has had her laid up
at Midland for years. She is 663 feet long
with a beam of 67 feet, and was built in
1955. She is said to have a good mix of the
finest traditional fittings and the most
modern equipment then available. The
trouble is, the Dunn was built at Port Ar-
thur shipyards.
