McBarge

The McBarge, officially named the Friendship 500, is a former McDonald's restaurant, built on a 187-foot-long (57 m)[1] barge for Expo '86 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

[2] Moored on Expo grounds in Vancouver's False Creek, it was the second floating McDonald's location in the world (the first being in St. Louis, Missouri), intended to showcase future technology and architecture.

[8] Concerns over float plane noise and other environmental issues meant the development was ultimately rejected.

[1] In 2017, the barge's owners, alongside diving pioneer Phil Nuytten, announced plans to convert it into an attraction called the Deep Ocean Discovery Centre.

[13] A petition to Vancouver City council to give the barge Historic Place Status received only 185 signatures.

The McBarge anchored in Burrard Inlet near Vancouver , British Columbia, in 2006
