Ok, I'll bite. What is this about? Your "photograph" appears to be the screenshot used to promote the video the abc affiliate station produced on this mall this past august. I also notice the file you uploaded is entitled "clue.jpg." (as though an invitation to some kind of scavenger hunt?) The first line of your post is almost word-for-word the first line of a Caedmon's Call song (see song "Thankful" from the 1999 release "40 Acres." Not sure this means anything - maybe it's really weridly coincidence - just another sort of strange item). The news story states this building has been around for a century, but made no mention of canoes being produced there (only furniture makers). This is in California, right? Not exactly the hotbed of early canoe-making the east-coast is, right? I realize I am no canoe historian, so I may be missing some glaringly obvious canoe reference, but... As of now I'm...cautiously suspicious? - no offense intended if you mean nothing malicious...
