Looking southwest towards the corner of Queen St E and Church St in the Old Town, St Lawrence neighbourhood of Toronto.
The corner building at 79 Queen St E was designed by architects WC Vaux Chadwick & Bryan Chadwick in the late 1920s as a branch for the Bank of Nova Scotia. The bank closed this location in 2018. With its architectural significance, the city recognized the building’s importance by granting it heritage status back in 1976.
Notice the Eaton’s truck on the left side of the archive photo.
