Queen and Manning/Then and Now

Patrick Cummins has been documenting the evolution of this corner since 1979 and I'm glad he did. Queen Street was once lousy (amply supplied) with small diners. As tastes change they've disappeared one by one.

Queen and Manning/Then and Now

The north side of Queen looking west in 1923 past "Colleck's Barber Shop" a little further down the street an old gas pump is visible.

Queen and Manning/Then and Now

These stores on the south side of Queen and Manning were in serious need of repair in 1925.
The plaque above says they were built in 1876.
Repairs were made and they stand today with only half of the plaque visible.
