Prince of Wales Rink
The Prince of Wales Rink, more commonly known as the Prince's Rink, was a domed wooden ice arena located on Factory Lane in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, that operated for over 42 years. It was named in honour of Edward, the Prince of Wales and the eldest son of Queen Victoria. The historic Prince's Rink hosted the first thirty-eight St. John's senior hockey league championships (Boyle Trophy) and the first seven all-Newfoundland hockey championships (Herder Memorial Trophy) before the building was destroyed by fire on November 28, 1941.
==Construction==
On December 11, 1898 the foundation for the rink was laid near the old Newfoundland Railway terminus at Fort William. The land was previously owned by the Reid Newfoundland Railway. Robert G. Reid Sr. deeded the land in exchange for shares of equal value in the new rink management company. The Rink followed the size and design of the Montagnard Rink built in 1898 at Montreal. Two Reid Railway engineers, Fred Angel and W.H. Murray, drew up the plans for the new rink. The wooden structure was built by Campbell and Company and Horwood Lumber Company and was completed in less than two months. Planks recovered from a ship wreck were steamed, curved and bolted to form the dome roof.
