Looking towards the southeast corner of Queen St W and Simcoe St in downtown Toronto. The archive photo dated circa 1885 shows when the corner building was home to the JM Rutherford Flour & Feed store, and in the 1923 photo, a United Cigar Store later occupied the building. Since 1958, the entire block bound by Simcoe St, Queen St W, University Ave and Richmond St W has been the site of the former Bank of Canada Building.
