Fort Vancouver. The HBC Village is one of the archeological sites included in the Fort Vancouver landscape boundary. Located outside the stockade, the area is estimated to have contained between forty and sixty dwellings and associated outbuildings. The village was a large multicultural setting, supporting the many workers associated with the Hudson's Bay Company. Village House #1, originally built around the 1830s, was reconstructed in 2006-2007 by the University of Oregon Field School. It was designed to evoke the style and scale of a typical employee residence that existed during the HBC era. It provides a view of 19th-century living conditions in the village. Archeology deposits from both the fort and the village have great potential to explore the behaviors and social organization of Fort Vancouver.
