The history of Saskatoon began with the first permanent non-indigenous settlement of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, in 1883 when Toronto Methodists, wanting to escape the liquor trade in that city, decided to set up a "dry" community in the rapidly growing Canadian Prairies, prairie region. As of 1882 this area was a part of the Districts of Northwest Territories, provisional district named District of Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan, North-West Territories (NWT). Their organization, the Temperance Colonization Society, first examined this area in 1882 and found that it would make an excellent location to found their community based on the ideals of the temperance movement; Saskatoon traditionally considers 1882 its founding year and thus marked its centennial in 1982. The settlers, led by John Neilson Lake, arrived on the site of what is now Saskatoon by traveling by railway from Ontario to Moose Jaw, Assiniboia, NWT, and then completing the final leg via horse-drawn cart (the railway had yet to be completed to Saskatoon). The plan for the Temperance Colony soon failed as the group was unable to obtain a large block of land within the community. Nonetheless, John Lake is commonly identified as the founder of Saskatoon; a public school, a park and two streets are named after him (Lake Crescent, which was developed in the 1960s, and Eastlake Avenue, originally Lake Avenue (as testified on the first map of Saskatoon from 1883), but later changed for reasons unknown).
In 1885, several houses on 11th Street East were used as military hospitals during the North-West Rebellion. One house, the Marr Residence, is a heritage site run by the Meewasin Valley Authority. The first school, Victoria School, opened for classes at the corner of 11th Street and Broadway Avenue in 1888. This small school, now called the "Victoria School (Saskatoon), Little Stone Schoolhouse", now sits on the campus of the University of Saskatchewan.
In 1901, Saskatoon's population hit 113. A third settlement, Riversdale, Saskatoon, Riversdale, also began just southwest of Saskatoon. 1903 saw an economic boom for Saskatoon with the encampment of History of Saskatchewan, Barr colonists on their way to the Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, Brittania colony. A town charter for the west side of the river was obtained in 1903; Nutana became a village in the same year.
April 1904 saw the collapse of the rail bridge due to Ice jam, spring melt and ice on the South Saskatchewan River.Saskatoon Gen Web Project Narratives of Saskatoon

The QLL&SR bridge was rebuilt in 1905, and again after a train fell through it in March 1914; it was demolished in 1965 to make way for the Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge and the Idylwyld Freeway.

Early history
Before the founding of the city itself, the Saskatoon area was already inhabited by nomadic First Nations in Canada, indigenous peoples, with the oldest traces of occupation dating back around 6,000 years. Stratified remains from the Tipperary Creek First Nations sites near Saskatoon indicate that the area was occupied by indigenous peoples in winter. The future site of Saskatoon was part of the lands that First Nations ceded to the Crown by Treaty 6 in 1876. The Qu'Appelle, Long Lake and Saskatchewan Railroad and Steamboat Company, Qu'Appelle, Long Lake and Saskatchewan Railway reached Saskatoon in 1890 and crossed the South Saskatchewan River where the Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge now stands, causing a boom in development on the west side of the river.20th century
From the end of the North-West Rebellion in 1895 to 1913, Saskatoon was a "boomtown" that saw exponential population growth. The main contributing factors of the exponential growth includes the establishment of a temperance settlement in the area during the late 19th century; an economic surge created by the Barr colonists 1903; the city becoming western Canada's railway network hub, and the establishment of the University of Saskatchewan in the city.
In 1901, Saskatoon's population hit 113. A third settlement, Riversdale, Saskatoon, Riversdale, also began just southwest of Saskatoon. 1903 saw an economic boom for Saskatoon with the encampment of History of Saskatchewan, Barr colonists on their way to the Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, Brittania colony.

Latter 20th century
After World War I, the Dust Bowl, Dirty Thirties and Great Depression in Canada, Depression years saw migration away from bankrupt farms and towards a hope of employment in the cities. The socio-economic changes brought about by World War II and the industrial revolution saw a shift from rural life to urban living. Saskatoon was not only a centre for the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan during the 1940s, but also became a major regional distribution and service centre. Saskatoon experienced a severe shortage of residential dwellings between 1945 and 1960. During the 1960s, the CNR rail yards were relocated to C.N. Yards Management Area, Saskatoon, Chappell Drive, making room for the Idylwyld Freeway and Midtown Plaza (Saskatoon), Midtown Plaza in the first Saskatoon Central Business District, Saskatoon, Downtown revitalisation project. In 1906, the boundaries of Saskatoon were Clarence Avenue to the east, Taylor Street to the south, Avenue P to the west, and 33rd Street East to the north.
