Originally known as the Germantown, Bridgeland was home to ethnic Germans (belonging to the Russian Empire) who came to the community and permanently settled here. It was only by the beginning of the 20th century that a majority of the settlers in Bridgeland were Ukrainian and Italian immigrants. After that, the community was referred to as the Riverside for several decades until it was finally christened Bridgeland after the famous Dominion Bridge Company that began its operations in the area.
