      I still mean to do those Herzog shots ... maybe in the spring at this point. Keep these coming Mike, you can do a book!

      What I'd like to do is compile a list of Vancouver's oldest existing houses from the 1890s. There's many undocumented and liable to vanish unnoticed.

      I'd like to pickup Herzog's book eventually. Here's my Herzog shots.

      it amazes me to think that, there are still some people alive today that've seen Granville St this way.

      when did they discontinue the trolleys?

      Streetcar service ended 1955, sadly.

      Yes nice work on the before and afters. And the Herzog places too. You can order his book from Amazon.ca for only $28.00!
