A Traffic Jam Near High Park, 1910


Two Ford Model T automobiles drive side-by-side what is probably the eastern shore of Grenadier Pond in High Park in 1910.  Note that, as with today, there were more people on Toronto's roads than there were cars.

A Ford Model T Drives Through High Park In 1910


A Model T motorcar drives past what looks like a stately oak in High Park in 1910.  At this point the Model T had only been available for a year and a half.

Indian Road, Early 1900s


Indian Road (compare with the previous entry in February) in the early 1900s.  Based on the dates of the other photos on the same page as this one, it is somewhere between 1903 and 1911.  Suffice it to say that Indian Road, near the Toronto neighbourhood of High Park, is paved and heavily populated.

Indian Road Crescent 1903


Indian Road Crescent, south of Bloor Street West and near High Park, in February of 1903.  Check out the large, pre-global warming snowbanks.  Toronto doesn't look like that very often any more.

I believe this is my grandmother in the area of High Park in the first decade of the 1900s.
