Description
Photo of concrete retaining walls, concrete steps, concrete sidewalks at the G.T.R. elevation at Exhibition Park in Toronto, Ontario.

Supposedly, over 50,000 barrels of Rogers Cement were used in this work.

This photo comes from a series of 20 photographs dated 1915. Three show the St. Marys Cement Plant while 17 show buildings and bridges (mostly in Toronto) constructed using Rogers Cement. They were in a sales package, and came to us from Ron Laidlaw.
