1 photograph : b&w glass negative ; 16.4 x 21.3 cm
Scope and Content
Photograph of North Road and the Brunette Bridge, looking south into New Westminster from Burnaby. By the northern end of the bridge, there is a pit being dug with shovels. A few houses can be seen on the southwest side of the bridge. The house furthest away is identified as the William Holmes house (Burnaby's first settler to pre-empt property in Burnaby). All of the land on the right side of the road was purchased by William H. Holmes in 1860 (District Lot 1, Group 1, New Westminster District). A car is parked on the side of the road south of the bridge. The shorter ash tree south of the bridge is identified as the famous "Holmes Ash Tree" (also known as the "Moody tree").

Photograph of a paved street lined on both sides with curbs and electric poles. There appears to be a car in the distance, as well as an idustrial building on the right-hand side of the road. An earlier catalogue record from 1988 conjectures that the street is Kingsway, probably in Burnaby, between Sperling Avenue and Royal Oak, looking South, and that the building is possibly the Macadam making plant for the company which paved Kingsway.
