Wallace Ave & Lansdowne Ave in 1980 & 2023

Looking west along Wallace Ave towards Lansdowne Ave, in the Junction-Wallace Emerson neighbourhood of Toronto. Notice the Canadian General Electric Company Ltd Ward Street Works water tower in the background of both photos. The structure was built in the early 1920s, and it’s one of only a few water towers remaining in the city. In the last 40+ years, the landscape has not changed much.
