Photo from the HMCS Hunter Archives

The photo above comes from the Commanding Officer of the HMCS HUNTER. A vintage photo of the Marketorium that is a little better and clearer than the one I posted the other day. It was quite a good looking building in its retail state.

Thanks to everyone for their submissions. I’m always on the lookout for vintage shots from around town too… If you’ve got any older shots of the city in your albums or in your parents albums that you would be willing to share with us, please don’t hesitate to drop me a line – andrew@internationalmetropolis.com

Thanks! Have a great weekend everyone.
