It is hard to miss the iconic two story stone building that sits on the corner of Victoria Avenue and 7th Street. The old cobble stone structure, large arching entrance and main street frontage all show signs of old town heritage.

The building was built in 1908 for the Fernie Livery, Dray and Transfer Company, delivering milk, feed, coal and other goods around the area using horse and wagon. Constructed with stone from the banks of the Elk River, the building is truly part of our community.

Over the years, the building has seen everything from horses, an auto shop, fruit storage and retail stores. Now, being home to The Livery Restaurant on the second floor.
