Gone, Bygone, Gone

Gone: from Mann Ave.

The sign on the door of the laundromat and dry cleaners at the corner of Mann Avenue and Chapel Street reads: “Good news! A new food store is coming soon.” But the loss of Sandy Hill’s only dry cleaner and an excellent seamstress does not sound like anything to rejoice about.

Bygone: by the Rideau River rapid

Sandy Hill resident Pierre Cantin took this photo of the Rideau River from the 7th floor of 85 Range Road. Apparently these lines are left from one of the first railway connections between Montreal and Ottawa. IMAGE would welcome a story on this interesting piece of Sandy Hill history!

Gone: dirt and broken glass at the Adàwe river crossing
