Yonge Street, Toronto, ON, about 1890

  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.

• Musée McCord Stewart Museum said:

  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

• Lú_ said:

  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 :)

• Neal Jennings said:

  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?

• A Stitch in Time said:

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