Photograph of a paved road lined with electric poles on both sides and a wood plank sidewalk on one side of the road. There are two men in suits and bowler hats riding bicycles and another man in suit and bowler hat standing on the sidewalk. The sun is casting long shadows from the left side of the photograph. An earlier catalogue record from 1988 conjectures that the photograph may be of Kingsway in Burnaby, possibly near Gilley looking east towards Griffiths Avenue. The record also dates the negative, ca. 1914.

Caption from metadata: "Gord Thorneycroft says he used to be able to enjoy his morning coffee looking out onto a quiet, tree-lined lane while working in his garage behind his home on 9th Ave. But workers building the new 10th Ave. connector tore out the trees last September, the City of Burnaby isn't making any promises to erect noise barriers, and his lane has become a thoroughfare to the Bombardier Skytrain plant."
