Bathurst Street – Front Street Bridge looking north, August 26, 1916. City of Toronto Archives, Fonds 1231, Item 1913.
In the summer of 1916, the original Bathurst Street Bridge was replaced by a steel structure that had carried Lakeshore Road over the Humber River since 1903. The move allowed for the construction of a new streetcar service to the eastern end of the Canadian National Exhibition, which fair officials hoped would improve access to the fair.
