Canafornian's photos with the keyword: notre dame

POSTCARD Date: Not evident. Unposted. Publisher / Photographer: Lyall Commercial. Notation: I have had some difficulty finding information on this building/business. The 1911 Henderson Directory has its address as 21-27 Notre Dame Avenue, St. Boniface. No such number exists today. Notre Dame begins at Tache - running east, with house numbers in the 100s. Checking with Hatheway's map of Winnipeg in 1911, it is evident that Notre Dame originally ran straight through Tache to the river bank - land now repurposed as Parc Joseph Royal. Given that the odd numbers on Tache are on the north side, it is likely that the St. Boniface Hotel was as well. In fact, I am pretty sure that it sat at the NW corner of Tache & Notre Dame. Back to the image on the postcard... I believe that the paved street on the right side of the picture was likely Tache and the dirt street on the left would have been Notre Dame.
