Circular dam foot of Sullivan’s Pond, route of Shubenacadie Canal near Dartmouth

by

“Lakeside”, later ‘‘Beechmount Apartments” and now 84 Crichton Avenue, seen directly ahead behind the circular dam, which, especially in reference to this photo from Findlay’s Pond, helps triangulate the location of this photo to somewhere near the bottom of Maple Street. I believe the Cenotaph at Sullivan’s Pond Park would be located near the middle of the photo today.
