Historical Resource Centre
Duke Street includes structures and institutions that endure and others that are now lost in time. In this virtual Historical Resource Centre, we will introduce you to both.
Lost In Time
This early 20th century map of Duke Street has been edited to locate many of the historic locations that no longer exist, as well as a few that do. Many of the locations are also marked with plaques on Duke Street itself, as part of the Walking Street Museum. Click on the hyperlinks for more information on each named location and discover how Duke Street was back in the day!
