This bronze statue of The Linesman is a tribute to the Dublin Dockers of the past and was created by contemporary Dublin artist Dony McManus. The linesmen were the men who tied up the ships to the quayside at time when bustling merchant ships docked on the River Liffey. It was unveiled in February 2000 and is located on City Quay between the Matt Talbot and Se'an O’Casey bridges.

The Rainforest Coast of British Columbia encompasses the largest remaining intact temperate rainforest in the world. While it is often the beauty of BC’s coastal rainforests which enthral visitors from throughout the world, it is the productiveness of these forests that intrigue scientists. BC’s coastal rainforests feature the highest biomass (the total amount or mass of organisms in a given area) per hectare of any ecosystem on earth. Trees here can often live more than 1,000 years, reaching hundreds of feet into the air, with diameters exceeding 9.4m. Coastal rainforests provide critical habitat for incredibly varied populations of animals. Well-known species include grizzly bears, eagles, and the rare Kermode or Spirit bear, an unusual snow-white variation of the black bear. The coastal rainforests are among the rarest and most productive ecosystems on the planet; they are also disappearing before we know almost anything about them. It’s as if we are burning the library before we have read the books. Only in the last 10 years have scientists begun to learn about the fragile system of interrelationships that makes up the beautiful web of life in these “green cathedrals”. In the meantime salmon, which our fisheries as well as a multitude of other animals depend upon, are disappearing forever along with many other species that can live only in coastal rainforests. The temperate rainforest is very rare, originally covering less than 0.2% of the earth's land surface. Now, over one half of that limited original temperate rainforest has been logged and altered; of that which remains worldwide, over one quarter is found on BC's coast. Recently environmental organizations have been able to turn the spotlight of international concern to BC’s rainforests. Efforts to protect such ‘Great Spaces’ as the Kitlope and Great Bear Wilderness, have become internationally known as have the Queen Charlotte Islands’ Gwaii Haanas, and the Walbran Valley. But time is running out. So far only 5.8% of BC’s ancient rainforests have been protected and much of the rest has been scheduled to be clearcut in the next decade. (From the Spaces for Nature website.) This forest along Chapman Creek was logged (by hand) about a century ago. You can still see notched stumps scattered through the forest, with new trees sprouting from their tops.

Chapman Creek reaches the Georgia Strait at Davis Bay in Sechelt and is thought to have been one of the largest salmon producing streams on the Sunshine Coast prior to European contact in the mid-1800s. According to the Strategic Land Use Plan for the shishalh Nation (Draft 2007) this watershed has significant spiritual and cultural importance. It is also the source of drinking water for approximately 27,000 people. The will of the shishalh people and the Sunshine Coast Regional District for the management of this watershed is expressed in the Joint Watershed Management Agreement of 2005.  Since 1947, peak escapements for Coho, Pink and Steelhead have numbered in the hundreds. The peak number for Chum was 3500 spawners in 1973 and again in 1974. It is likely that the numbers for the Pink and Chum were much higher before the main creek mouth at the Wilson Creek estuary was diverted to its present outlet at Davis Bay in 1936.  Between 1967 and 1992, extensive logging and road building over unstable slopes caused over 300 landslides and road failures which impacted both drinking water quality and fisheries values. An Integrated Watershed Management Plan (IWMP) was completed in 1998 but was never implemented.  Chapman salmonids have also been negatively impacted by SCRD water withdrawals during late summer low flow periods. In 1999, a fish habitat and riparian assessment was conducted for the BC Ministry of Environment in conjunction with the Chapman Creek Watershed Restoration Project. A Coastal Watershed Assessment Procedure was completed by International Forest Products (Interfor) in 2000. It assessed the effects of past forest practices and provided recommendations for future forestry development. Also that year, Chapman Creek was one of only 15 streams designated as sensitive under the BC Fisheries Protection Act. Interfor abandoned this chart area in 2002.  Rainbow Trout and Dolly Varden were introduced before records were kept; Coho and Cutthroat were stocked in the late 1980s. Beginning in the early 1990s the Sunshine Coast Salmon Enhancement Society stocked Pink, Chum, Coho, Cutthroat, Steelhead and introduced Chinook. The stocking of Cutthroat was discontinued to ensure the survival of salmon fry and smolts. The Greater Georgia Basin Steelhead Recovery Action Plan of 2002 identified the stock status of both winter and summer Steelhead runs as a special concern. In 2004, during an enumeration of the Steelhead a total of only 2 adult Cutthroat were observed.  Chapman Creek is now regularly stocked with salmon fry. Returns have been disappointing and it is not clear that there are any wild self-sustaining salmon stocks left in this watershed. (From the Sunshine Coast Conservation Association.)
