55-51 : Coal Harbour Shipping
This is Coal Harbour in Vancouver from 1955. A cool view of the shipping and rail activity going on in the area. The only tall building in the area is the Marine Building on Burrard Street.
[Total: 4 Average: 5/5]
Do you see the sign on Burrard – that would have been visible to any northbound cars – it says “FERRIES” and then 2nd line “Canadian Pacific” in the famous old script-style font.
Also the entrance to the skytrain tunnel – entirely visible.
Are those oil/fuel tanks right over the harbour – hard to imagine today.
and no Westin Bayshore.
