WP2183 WPG - PILE DRIVER NEAR MAIN STREET CROSSING


POSTCARD
Date: Not evident. Not Posted.
Publisher / Photographer: Unidentified
Notation:I would like to know what is taking place in this image, and its accompanying one. The note on the reverse reads; "Pile driver near Main Street Crossing Winnipeg". The streetcar appears to be emerging from under the Main Street subway and it us identified as being on the "St. Boniface" Route & it is operating on overhead wires. I am assuming that the construction is taking place at the northwest corner of where the CRP tracks run over Main Street. I can't remember what building used to stand there - just to the south of the "Yellow Warehouse"?

1. It still might have been the original ca. 1905 subway construction. They couldn't stop the main line for months of construction so, I would imagine, once they started digging Main Street the first thing they'd have to do was build an elevated crossing for the main line.
2. In summer 1914, the bridge was widened by 85 feet so that more lines could cross over it.
