History / Biographical
The Lafarge Canada Exshaw Plant Expansion and demolished of town The expansion was announced in 1972 when residents were notified by letter that the cement plant was expanding onto the land then occupied by the town of Exshaw. Plant Manager Tom Pierce visited every family affected by the expansion and explained that the plant had to expand or it would be closed. The demolition began in July of 1973 and was completed in two phases. Forty seven homes were affected by the expansion, ten of which were privately owned. The houses owned by the company were offered to their tenants for one dollar, and the owners of privately owned houses on company land were given a sum equalling half the appraised value of the house. The home owners then moved the houses onto lease land not needed for the plant expansion or onto private lots within the community. Other sites demolished as part of the expansion were the elementary school, the general store, the Protestant church, the Portland Hotel, the curling and skating rinks, and the entirety of Main Street, which was known as Portland Avenue, except for the St. Catholic Church. The Portland Hotel was constructed in 1906 and had been the social hub of the community. It was located at the top of Portland Avenue and served as a community centre, restaurant and dance hall. At that time, the existing plant was also demolished and replaced, and a new 600 foot kiln was installed.
