Scope and Content
Photographic postcard of the "triangle block" at Kingsway and Edmonds. The building housed stores, the post office, and Doctor Watson's apartment. Although the postcard bears no postmark, a note is written on the reverse which reads: "This is the new store at Edmonds. The shop at the end (before it was opened) where the man is outside is the Post Office. Round the other side is a cafe, and upstairs we a Doctor living." A sign on the building reads "Edmonds General Store Co." and three unidentified people can be seen standing on the steps. In the foreground, the streetcar lines can be seen.
