The Fire Insurance Plans mapped streets and buildings of urban Canada in
great detail. The terms ‘maps’ and ‘plans’ can both be used to reference this
product. These plans illustrate building construction, occupancy and potential
fire hazards. Fire Insurance Plans are an invaluable resource due to their
ability to trace the historical development of many communities across Canada,
as well as provide detailed information regarding storage tanks, transformers,
boilers and electrical rooms.
The original plans were produced between 1875 and 1923. They continued to be
produced and updated until production ceased in 1974. There may be multiple
plans available for the same location in some instances. For example, Port
Colborne has plans dating from 1914 & 1953 . Copies provided in either 8½" x 11"
or 11" x 17". Typically, the most recent, or last revised date, are in colour.
The original fire insurance plans were produced by Chas. E. Goad Co. between
1875 and 1923.
