Here’s another lovely vintage photo from the Toronto Archives via the Vintage Toronto facebook page.
The Photo of the Day for August 9, 2012 was taken back in 1927 on Kingston Road looking south down Harding Boulevard.
If you have any old photos (of any vintage) of the neighbourhood we’d love to see them!
Harding Blvd 1927
An enthusiastic crowd of more than 200 people gathered on Saturday to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Branch 13 of the Royal Canadian Legion on Kingston Road.
Two more affordable apartment buildings in Birch Cliff have been targeted for redevelopment, which means there are now four proposed “demovictions” in the neighbourhood affecting tenants in a total of 155 rental units.
Opposition is muted to a comparatively modest eight-storey condo building proposed for 1161 Kingston Rd. at Courcelette Road, the current site of Spiros & Sons gas station.
A community association meeting will be held on Wed. Dec. 9 to discuss the ten condominium projects underway or pending in Birch Cliff, including Lenmore Court, where tenants have been told they will be displaced.

I seem to remember that fence on the west side from when the Canadian Tire store occupied that property. What was on the corner lot before Canadian Tire was there?
