History / Biographical
In the early 1990s, the Morice-Bulkley Heritage & Museum Society attempted to establish an open-air museum at Four Seasons Park, near Houston. Heritage buildings and large artifacts from the surrounding area were transported to the site and intended to be restored to their original state. However, various issues brought construction to a halt by the end of 1991. After a brief return to the project in the late 90s and early 2000s, the Four Seasons site was abandoned and several of the buildings were moved to a park at the corner of Highway 16 and Benson Ave.
