Description
English: Streetcars at Granville and Robson, with the Vancouver Block on the right. View towards north.
  • Original caption: "
    Granville Looking North at Robson - 1928/2010

    The top photo is one of those epic old photos that show the city back in 1920s quite well, with the hussle and bussle and streetcars and cars and pedestrians an signs everywhere. The Vancouver Block on the right is still there, the 2nd Hotel Vancouver on left is not. Some of the other low-rise buildings are still around, too, but the photo can do the talking on how things have changed. It was hard to match up this photo with a modern camera as it looks like the top photo's perspective is slightly compressed, something I may have been able to achieve with a zoom lens. But this will do for now.
