The Way-Back Machine

Yesterday's picture showed Columbia Street over five decades ago. Yet, of course, the history of my city is older than that. Here's a postcard copy of Columbia Street some ninety-five years ago!

One reason we like living in New Westminster is that it's smaller than other communities around Vancouver. The small size provides the city with a genuine sense of community. This is further heightened by the fact it has an important history. I created a page that explains a bit about this back when I used to have a webcam on my balcony. You can read the overview found there.
