Royce/Dupont and Dundas St., April 10 1914
Royce Ave. (now Dupont St.) is one of the major roads that enters/exits out neighbourhood on both sides. Back in 1914, the intersection of Dundas St. West, Annette St., Royce Ave. (Dupont St.), and Old Weston Road was a much simpler affair, with a level crossing of the railway tracks. In this photo, we're looking east from Dundas St. over the tracks.
Here is another photo with a similar view from 1923.
Photo is from the City of Toronto Archives.
