Building No.8 (Royal Canadian Corps of Signals)

The Royal Canadian Corps of Signals erected a transmitter station at the island in 1930 as part of a communication system that connected much of the Yukon and Northwest Territories to southern Canada. Following the departure of the Corps from Herschel Island - Qikiqtaruk the building was used as housing for the Mounted Police Special Constable. The building was renovated to serve as accommodation for the Park staff including bedrooms, living, and cooking areas. Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
