Tecumseh & Pelissier – 1929

Happy Wednesday everyone, and also the last post of April. Today’s shot is looking west [urrrr… thanks for pointing that error out Tom] East along Tecumseh Road from the intersection of Pelissier (Victoria Ave is the boulevard in the extreme foreground). This shot from September 1929, shows the recently built Kennedy CI on the grounds of the old Windsor Jockey Club. The old horse track is still visible, and Jackson Park has yet to be created. At the spot where the Jackson Park Gates are today, you can see the streetcar turn-around loop.
