2.1.14
Sherdahl owned the Rosehill Nursery near 12th/Westminster Road (Kingsway) (ca. 1903).  Tight vests provide a dignified aspect with pockets, notebooks, a watch. The sun is low in the horizon judging by the length of their shadows and illuminated faces. Late in the day or season. An equinoxal mix. Bare saplings aside cherry or dogwood perhaps. The outstretched hand a gesture of concern.

Walk three blocks east. Turn south and find a crime scene. Attempted robbery. Thieves built a fake closet inside the dry cleaning shop. From inside the closet a hole was bored through the wall into the Royal Bank at 670 Kingsway. Three men were captured.

Leonard Frank took the top photo September 19th, 1930. Hulk 'Pacific Gatherer' snagged middle span. Tide rose pressing ship into bridge. Collapse ensued. Middle span gathered into the Pacific.  Now rail traffic. First through a tunnel then across the inlet. First across the inlet then through the tunnel. One way.

River salvage. Old corporate landfill rusting away. Rust hulled the ship sinks idly. Idly sinking the rust hulled ship slowly sinks. Impressive as it rests aside smaller rusting shells. Defiant as it resists salvage.
