Photograph of the Real Estate Office and Surveyor's building on top of a flatbed truck trailer with jacks and wood cribbing piles at the end. The Royal Bank building is visible to the left.
History
The building was originally located at 3043 (pre-1958) / 6108 Patterson Avenue, Lot 22, Block 33, District Lot 151, Plan 2002. It was built ca. 1929, possibly by Mr. Cuthbert Pratt. Over the years it was used as a confectionary store, grocery store, home, and small boarding house. By 1977, it was operating as the Magee Grocery Store. The building was moved to BVM in May 1977 and then adapted to look like the original Dow, Fraser & Co. Ltd. real estate building.

Scope and Content
Photograph of scaffolding set up for the manufacture of submarines at the submarine works yard at Barnet. Numerous labourers and two industrial buildings can be seen in the background. During World War One, the Royal Russian Navy contracted with a Seattle-based company to build submarines for Russia, but American neutrality in the war prevented the subs from being built in the United States. Instead, the company operated a facility at Barnet to complete the contract.
