Unknown Road



An unknown road.  Given the picture's place in the album, it is likely around High Park area, and the road is most likely Bloor Street West.

An unknown road in Toronto, sometime between 1909 and 1924.  Given the other photos nearby in the album, it is likely somewhere near High Park, and could even be Bloor Street West.

Bridge, 1909


A young woman prepares to cross a bridge in 1909.  At first I thought it was a foot bridge, and then I remembered that many of Toronto's roads were hard-packed dirt a century ago.

Unknown location.

CN Rail Bridge, 1909


A CN Rail bridge in an unknown location; judging from the other rail photos from this album, it is likely somewhere around the Junction which, my mother informs me, had a bad name in those days.  It was important to let people know you were from south of Bloor Street if you lived in that area.
