EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a nostalgic glimpse of Jasper Avenue looking West in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada during the 1910s. The bustling street is lined with classic Canadian architecture and street furniture, giving us a window into the past of this vibrant city. Overhead tramlines crisscross above the road, showcasing an era when trams were a popular mode of transportation.
The image is filled with intricate details - from the wires and poles supporting the tramlines to the tracks running along the avenue. The scene is alive with activity as pedestrians walk along the sidewalks and horse-drawn carriages make their way down the street.
As we gaze at this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to a simpler yet bustling period in Edmonton's history. The black-and-white aesthetic adds to its timeless charm, making it feel like a piece of living history frozen in time.
This print serves as a reminder of how much has changed since then while also highlighting some elements that have remained constant throughout Edmonton's evolution. It's a beautiful testament to the city's rich heritage and enduring spirit.
