Description
This glossy print of the streetscape on Dundas Street, just east of Richmond Street, gives a good view of the many businesses lining the street, particularly on the north side. Partially visible, in the left foreground, is The Canadian Bank of Commerce, located on the northeast corner of Richmond and Dundas. Retail stores and the Loew's and Capitol theatres can be seen along the north side of the block stretching from Richmond to Clarence Streets. The large Huron and Erie Building, located on the northeast corner of Dundas and Clarence, is easily visible towering above the other buildings. A banner with two poppies and the words LEST WE FORGET is strung across the busy street filled with cars and pedestrians.
Notes
The London Room photograph index card suggests the date is possibly November 11, 1941.
