#windsor, #ontario was the first Canadian city to introduce electric street cars in 1886.
In 1893, the system was expanded along Ouellette Avenue and connected the downtown with Windsor Race Track (now Jackson Park). The photograph shows Ouellette Avenue looking north from near Chatham Street.
The Manning House Hotel (later the Royal Bank), built in 1887, is at the right on the southeast corner of Ouellette Avenue and Pitt Street and the old post office building is the first building on the left.
