A stroll through history: Elgin Street over the years

A stretch of Elgin Streetreopens to trafficon Monday.

Roadwork isnothing new for the historic Ottawa thoroughfare.

And this vendor apparently wasn't happy about the street being torn up in 1955.

Cyclists and pedestrians weren't an uncommon sight

and the Elgin Theatre was a hot spot to catch the newest flick in town.

Or, you could walk a few blocks south to rent a movie.

Winter looked about the same, though.

What else can you spot?
