Aerial View Looking South - c. early 1930s, 2015

Aerial view looking south from the Legislative Building to University Avenue - the view on the left is from the 1930s, the view on the right is from present day

Noticeably missing from the c. early 1930s photo are the lampposts that now line the pathway from the building to the Sir John A. Macdonald statue. However in the distance you can see the Beaux Arts Canada Life Assurance Building at University Ave. and Queen St., built between 1929-1931, which is now hidden by taller buildings to the north.
