About the Book

From a rambling Victorian town to a diverse cosmopolitan city that mixes art and commerce with an Acadian flair, Moncton has rebranded its image as an industrial, hub city into a thriving eclectic locale.

Greater Moncton Then and Now/Le Grand Moncton hier et aujourd'hui takes readers on a captivating pictorial journey through that transformation, drawing on images from the past and present of Moncton, Riverview, and Dieppe. Over 200 photographs are included, sourced from private collections, the archives of the Moncton Museum, the collection of Reid's Photographic Centre, and Moncton's award-winning photographer Daniel St Louis.

Presented in both English and French to reflect the bilingual character of the region, the book is a pilgrimage to the past that strides confidently into the present. Moncton philanthropist H. Reuben Cohen contributes a charming foreword, recalling halcyon days before the post-war boom, while Arthur Dobson and Ken MacLeod write of legacies to the city forged through its hard-working people. Greater Moncton Museum Society President Lourdes O'Reilly says "Our goal is to show you how Moncton, Dieppe, and Riverview have evolved into the wonderful, vibrant communities that exist today."

Through visual representation, the evolution of Greater Moncton comes alive, showing how the embrace of progress has propelled the region to one of the most exciting in the country. Greater Moncton Then and Now/Le Grand Moncton hier et aujourd'hui is a discerning, innovative, and fascinating record of the region's past and present. A portion of the proceeds from the book will support the expansion of the Moncton Museum and the construction of the Transportation Discovery Centre, now renamed "Resurgo Place."

De ville victorienne chaotique à une cité cosmopolite et diversifiée qui allie les arts et le commerce avec une touche acadienne, Moncton a troqué son image de carrefour industriel pour celle d'un lieu florissant où l'on trouve de tout.

Greater Moncton Then and Now/Le Grand Moncton hier et aujourd'hui entraîne le lecteur dans un voyage pictural captivant qui lui fait voir cette transformation, en puisant dans des images du passé et du présent de Moncton, de Dieppe et de Riverview. Plus de 200 photographies y sont réunies et proviennent de collections privées, des archives du Musée de Moncton, de la collection de Reidés Photographic Centre et du photographe primé Daniel St Louis, de Moncton.

Le livre, rédigé en français et en anglais pour refléter le caractère bilingue de la région, est un pèlerinage dans le passé qui avance d'un pas assuré dans le présent. Le philanthrope H. Reuben Cohen, de Moncton, signe un avant-propos charmant, rappelant les jours heureux d'avant la guerre et le baby-boom qui a suivi, tandis qu'Arthur Dobson et Ken MacLeod traitent de l'héritage que ses travailleurs infatigables ont laissé à la ville. « Nous voulons vous montrer comment les villes de Moncton, de Dieppe et de Riverview se sont transformées en ces magnifiques communautés dynamiques que nous connaissons aujourd'hui », dit Lourdes O'Reilly, pr'sidente de l'Association du musée de la région métropolitaine de Moncton. L'évolution du Grand Moncton prend vie grâce à la représentation visuelle, qui illustre comment la région s'est ouverte au progrès pour se propulser parmi les régions les plus attrayantes du pays. Greater Moncton Then and Now/Le Grand Moncton hier et aujourd'hui est un document novateur, fascinant et plein de finesse qui brosse un tableau du passé et du présent de la région. Une partie des recettes des ventes du livre aidera à financer l'agrandissement du Musée de Moncton et la construction du Centre de découverte des transports, maintenant rebaptisé « Place Resurgo ».
