From the book Images of Burlington -

The Brant Plaza has seen numerous changes since this photo was taken around 1960. The Loblaws store is long gone, replaced by another grocery store.

The other stores visible in this photograph were well known names of that era with Woolworths, Bata Shoes and Cloke's having vacated the plaza many years ago.

The Trefoil Lodge, a facility used by the Girl Guides for many years, is partially hidden behind the Cloke's store.

From the book Vanished Hamilton III -

The Plantation Motor Hotel was a tavern, Chinese restaurant and 10-room motel at the corner of Highway 53 and Upper Gage Avenue. It was a popular spot for Mountain residents.

The best estimate is that the tavern was established in the 1930s by a man named DeGeer. He managed to get a beer licence making the Plantation the only licensed facility in the area.

From the book Images of Burlington -

Back in 1935 when the Brant Inn's Sky Club opened people dined under the stars right at the edge of Lake Ontario, while steps away many of North America's top entertainers performed on the Brant Inn stage.

This popular nightspot was located at what is today the west end of Spencer Smith Park.

From the book Vanished Hamilton –

The B-Hive was a popular eating spot on the southwest corner of Highways 5 and 6 at Clappison’s Corners.

Housed in a small building designed in the Art Deco style, the B-Hive was popular with local residents, but the restaurant’s most faithful customers gradually came to be the long distance truck drivers who needed a good hot meal….mashed potatoes, grilled pork chops, steak pie, a hot hamburg sandwich, beans on toast or of course, the B-Hive chili.

The demolition of the B-Hive Restaurant in the early 1980s marked the end of an era, the demise coming when such restaurants could not compete with the competition from the fast food chains and the modern service centres that became a feature of long distance travel.

The opening of the Loblaws store on Plains Road on Oct. 27, 1955, at a time when store hours were somewhat limited!

Lines were long! There was a similar size crowd on the west side of the building.

From the book Prints Over Hamilton -

It's one of the city's busiest intersections today, but back more than 100 years ago, King and James was anything but busy with few people, no cars and only a couple of trolley cars passing in front of what was then the Bank of Hamilton building.

The photo shows the Birk's building, to the left, the old Spectator building, mid-block, and off in the distance, St. Paul's Presbyterian Church.

From the book Images of Burlington -

With its roots dating back to the early 1800s, St. Luke's Church just west of the downtown core was built when Burlington was known as Wellington Square.

The church, which was built on land donated by Elizabeth Kerr, the daughter of Joseph Brant, and her husband Captain William Johnson Kerr, is surrounded by a pioneer cemetery.

From the book Memories of the Beach Strip -

This 1962 photo shows how close the railway tracks came to the cottages on the Burlington side of the canal.

The tracks were removed in 1986 which allowed the lift bridge to be expanded to 4 lanes.

From the book Images of Burlington -

Burlington had a population of about 1,200 citizens, the streets were yet to be paved and there were no cars when this photograph of Water Street (today's Lakeshore) looking east from Brant Street was taken around 1900.
