Another photo stitch of the west side of Yonge north of Elm in the winter of 1950.Dominion Regalia (As seen above) is still in business and supplies flags as well as Masonic Regalia.....
Yonge and Gerrard/Then
The west side of Yonge from Gerrard up to Hayter and Eaton's College store in 1950.I think these were documented prior to the subway construction to monitor any damage to the the building as construction progressed. It's interesting to note that there was another Kresge's on the opposite side of the street one block north (see previous post)
