CFB Moncton, Canadian Forces military installation in Moncton, New Brunswick.
CFB Moncton is a Canadian Forces military installation located in an industrial area north of downtown Moncton. The facility occupies grounds with railway connections near the Canadian National Railways shops.
The facility was established in 1940 as an equipment depot and served as a central supply hub for Royal Canadian Air Force stations on the east coast during World War II. After the war, it evolved into a permanent military installation with changing operational roles.
The base functions as a focal point for the region's military community and local defence operations. Its facilities and personnel shape the daily rhythm of activity in this part of Moncton.
The site is located in an accessible industrial area with established road connections. Keep in mind that this is an active military facility where public access may be restricted or require special authorization.
Following a major restructuring in 1996, sections of the property were handed over to Canada Lands Corporation for redevelopment. The former Officers' Mess is now operated by the Royal Canadian Legion and serves as a gathering space for veterans.
