Ouellette Avenue in Windsor, ON, looking north to Detroit, MI, 1940s(?)
Faded, yellowed image of Ouellette Avenue in Windsor, ON, taken ca. 1940s near the corner with Park Street. Visible in the streetscape are buildings/signage for the Prince Edward Hotel, George H. Wilkinson, and McCreery's. The Detroit skyline is visible in the background, especially the Penobscot Building, constructed in the Art Deco style in 1928. The Prince Edward Hotel was torn down in 1976, and McCreey's is now a restaurant.
