Haro Street (between Cardero and Bidwell)

Item is a photograph on an album page, annotated with "The pole-like looking tree is all that remains of what was once a full grown Lombardy poplar; this is how the owner of the house fronting them dealt with these specimens in order to obtain light and air and to prevent dampness, from which his house was suffering. Note the variety of other trees and their close spacing."

Indexed guide map of Greater Vancouver and district [Proposed scenic drive]

Item is a published road map of Greater Vancouver which has been annotated to show the route of a proposed circular scenic drive route through Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, Coquitlam and Port Moody, as well as a proposed arterial route connecting the Pitt River Bridge to the Vancouver road network at Boundary Road.

The proposed scenic drive follows a route along Hastings Street, Stanley Park Drive, and along the entire route of Marine Drive around the University Endowment lands and east through southern Burnaby, then north from New Westminster through Coquitlam near the Alouette River.

The two pages of textual records transferred with the map itemize the specifications for paving for each section of the road.
