Bay St. looking N from Walton, 1930
The now perspective is shifted slightly to highlight the row-house survivors on the NW corner of Gerrard. The SW corner (at Gerrard where the traffic light is) was cleared and occupied by Herman Furs for many decades.
The drugstore you see there has beeen a tenant since the building was built. Back in the days of Sunday closing laws, it was the only drugstore in the city that was open on Sunday.
