A recent walk onto the LaSalle Causeway reminded me of some archival views that I've seen. In this post, I attempt (as closely as possible, realizing that the westernmost span is no longer in place) to match current and past views. Definitely an important part of Kingston's waterfront, the causeway was a portal for vessel docking as well as letting vessels into the Inner Harbour.

Hall Corporation ships tied up for the winter see spring in March, 1953
Another view from March, 1953 - with work on the bridge certainly nothing new!
