The McBarge is a unique and iconic structure that was originally built as a floating McDonald's restaurant for Expo 86 in Vancouver, Canada. Expo 86 was a World Expo held in Vancouver, and the McBarge was designed as part of the McDonald's pavilion. It was an innovative, futuristic design that featured a large, floating barge-like structure with McDonald's restaurants, a kitchen, and seating areas. After Expo 86 ended, the McBarge was left unused for many years. At one point, it was abandoned and fell into disrepair, but there have been various efforts to restore or repurpose the vessel in recent years. The McBarge itself became a notable piece of Vancouver’s history and a symbol of the Expo 86 event, often discussed by those who remember the event or those curious about its past. As of now, it remains docked in the waters near Vancouver, though it’s unclear whether it will ever be fully restored or repurposed for public use. The McBarge is considered a piece of architectural and cultural history from the 1980s in Canada.
