People:

Richard Broadbridge (photographer)

Title:

View of a commercial building under construction, corner of Broadway and Kingsway, Coquitlam (now Port Coquitlam), British Columbia

Date:

1912-1914

Description:

- Photographs PH1981:1286:013 and PH1981:1286:025 show the same commercial building at different stages of construction. The inscription on photograph PH1981:1286:025 probably correctly identifies the building as the "New Business Block - Corner Broadway and Kings Way". The inscription on photograph PH1981:1286:013 is apparently erroneous "Terminal Building, corner Simpson and Broadway". The Terminal office shown in photograph PH1981:1286:027 is not the same building shown in photographs PH1981:1286:013 and PH1981:1286:025. The intersection of Broadway and Kingsway is adjacent to the freight terminals, whereas Simpson [Street ?] has not been located (Statistics Canada).
