STORY MAP
Papertown Station Story Map
This map is a visual representation of our historical story collection over time and space. It is filled with our favourite West Coast stories and additional historical data, allowing readers to browse by neighbourhood rather than the full collection. Each station icon will lead you to a story about that location. Check back often as the map updates regularly with new information.
We hope you find a few stations in your neighbourhood!
Using the Story Map
Using the Papertown Station Story Map is as simple as four easy steps:
-
Drag the map and zoom in or out to explore your desired location. Use the +/- controls at the bottom left for finer zoom. Zooming out may reveal additional icons (e.g., London, San Francisco, Panama Canal, etc.).
-
Click on any station icon to reveal a story outline. Each outline provides a link to the full story.
-
Click the small arrow at the top left of the map to open the menu and display all available stories. Selecting one will highlight its location on the map with a white halo. Some stories appear more than once if they span multiple locations. You can filter by time period using the menu.
-
Use the four-cornered square at the top right of the map to expand it, and the three-dot icon beside it to share on social media.
