The United Empire Bank of Canada (I just found out while trying -- unsuccessfully so far -- to track down the intersection) only existed from 1906 to 1911, so the "about 1890" can't be right here.

Hello, We had the right date in the date field but not in the title. Thank you for noticing this inconstancy. The McCord Museum team

Oh of course - that makes sense! Now I just need to find out where on Yonge Street it was. With any luck it'll just appear before me later this week when I'm downtown :)

Lú_: Do you think that might be the King Edward Hotel in the middle-distance? That might make this Wellington Street, which would make some sense with the presence of banks?

It looks like Yonge St at Front St, looking North. What is now the hockey hall of fame is on the left (West).

The New York City garbage strike was put down by a massive hiring of strikebreakers, but outbursts of resistance continued until the end of November, as documented by stories in The New York Times. Cleanup efforts dragged on into December. "Strikers Plead to be Taken Back" New York Times story, November 21, 1911: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9A02E3DC1231E2...
