The city and the store

"While the province of British Columbia was still young, she gave birth to two lusty children - Vancouver, the village that became a great City, and Woodward's, the Store that has become an institution. Their birthdates are within a few years. Their stories have followed a remarkably parallel course. This book is an attempt to depict the principal events in their astounding growth." Includes colored drawings of Woodward's original store at Harris Street and Westminster Avenue in 1892 (now Main and Georgia), Hastings Street during World War I, Old Hotel Vancouver (Granville and Georgia), Woodward's Store after alterations (1947), St. James Anglican Church, Oakridge Shopping Centre (1959), and Woodward's self-park garage (1957).
