Chatham & Ouellette - 1963
January 21, 2016
Photo from the Windsor Municipal Archives
A shot looking west along Chatham Street from Ouellette. The long gone Kresge Building is on the left, replaced by the RBC building.
I think posting is likely going to shift to a Tuesday & Thursday thing for at least right now.
Walker & Wyandotte Underpass - 2004
January 6, 2016
Going though some old photos from 2004, I came across these shots of the old, now long gone underpass on Wyandotte, just east of Walker Road. This one is long gone and all filled in. Sometimes it’s hard to remember the things that used to be around, even just a few…
