That is my grandfather, the man with the white hair in the center of the last photo. He was Chief of Police back at that time.

It is so interesting what Rideau Street looked like in the 1890s. It looked really nice and quiet.

Downtown Ottawa looked so nice in the 1900. It has changed a lot.

These were beautiful photos what Montreal Road looked now and then. I would love you to do videos what Overbrook looked like then because where I live used to be a farm area.

Montreal Road certainly had changed a lot since then. It looked so much better then than now.

So the railway track were on the same area where they now have the Vanier Parkway? I do not know because it was way before I was born.

Lowertown looked so nice then even though I was not live then. Lowertown is now pretty rough.

That area looked so beautiful near Cummings Bridge. It looked more like countryside land.

Beautiful video! That being said, it is sad that no effort was ever done to preserve our architectural heritage. Most of those buildings have been demolished!

The driveways were so so small for parking those big cars from the 60s era. 😅 Some of them hung over into the sidewalk

I'm surprised at how long the Experimental Farm has maintained its name and purpose. I feel like the parks and gardens aren't quite what they used to be.

Merci Jean. J'étais une élève de l'ecole Genest et les jeunes Pères Blancs venaient nous parler de leur mission. Le sucre d'érable et les marches dans les boisée font part de mes beau souvenirs. Malheureusement les dirigeants, pour des raisons inconnue n'ont pas garder ce patrimoines. L'argent, toujours l'argent qui contrôle les changements. Tous ce qui fait partie du passé est si important pour remplir le cerveau de la jeunesse et l'education relatif à nous les canadiens français de Vanier et nos valeurs.

It had a pinball machine upstairs with the biggest ball I've ever seen in a machine. It was huge. I'm sure some people remember it.
