Description

Postcard scene in Grimsby East circa 1960; post marked 1964. Looking northwest from the base of the escarpment at Bartlett Avenue towards Park Road and Highway #8. The large two chimney residence mid photo is the residence at 260 Main Street East built by Tennyson Jarvis in 1914 on the site of the former school at "Grimsby Park Corner" - the SE corner of Park Road South and Main St. In the background, the large row of evergreens are on the Bowslaugh farm at 245 Main Street East. The tower of the Bowslaugh barn is visible at the tree line. In the distance are the Bedford Park bungalows built in the mid 1950s.
