Current River, Thunder Bay, Ontario

Current River is a neighbourhood located north east of Port Arthur in the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Development in the neighbourhood progressed northward, and as one travels further north Victory Homes become less common, being replaced with more contemporary building styles.

A small cluster of highrise apartments is located beside an outcrop of the Canadian Shield in the southernmost portion of the residential neighbourhood, and offers its residents a view of the Current River Greenway and Thunder Bay.

Separated from the main neighbourhood by Hodder Avenue and the Canadian Pacific Railway and Canadian National Railway mainlines is the Port Arthur Shipbuilding Company (PASCO) drydock and shipyard, which has been operating since 1909,[2] and the Thunder Bay Fine Papers mill, formerly Cascades.

Thunder Bay Transit route 17 Current River makes a counterclockwise loop through the neighbourhood and brings residents south to downtown Port Arthur (Waterfront Terminal).

The 260 hectares (640 acres) park includes Boulevard Lake, one of the Thunder Bay's most popular summer destinations.
