is a suburb of Prince George, British Columbia, Canada. Before the
arrival of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway in 1914, the Prince George
area was known as Fort George and was a Lheidli T'enneh village and
Hudson's Bay Company store. In 1909, two rival townsites were built and
promoted. One was on the Fraser River and was called South Fort George,
while the other was on the Nechako River and was called Central Fort
George. Both of these townsites believed that the railway would build a
station in their community, but in May 1912, the railway chose to
purchase the First Nation's village instead.
