Burnaby BC was incorporated in 1892 and achieved City status in 1992, one hundred years after incorporation. In the first 30 to 40 years after its incorporation, the growth of Burnaby BC was influenced by its location between expanding urban centers of Vancouver BC and New Westminster BC. It first served as a rural agricultural area supplying nearby markets. Later, it served as an important transportation corridor between Vancouver BC, the Fraser Valley and the interior of the Province.
