Welland Ship Canal Gardens
The Welland Ship Canal Company originally used the site at Port Weller (near St. Catharines) as a forestry and maintenance division. The site included flowerbeds, a pool, greenhouse, and tree nursery. The trees grown here were intended to be used to protect and beautify canal lands. The area is now known as Malcolmson Eco Park.
