Seems it was a vibrant neighbourhood in the lower city. York Blvd is quite desolate today - shame

Great shot of a York Boulevard that's not even finished.

The road bends to the right slightly and is built right up to the corner of the dark brick building where there is not even a sidewalk.

Was this a business that was non-supportive of the new grand entrance road concept? It almost looks like the building is right on top of present day Queen Street in its widened form.

And then there's the tarpaulined blob sitting right in the left turn lane that leads to Oxford (?) St. But that may just be a weather tent over a utility hole that's being accessed.

I wonder what the story is behind this picture.
