B&W, Sil. 35mm, 06:07 - This film of early Vancouver was shot by William Harbeck on May 7, 1907. He shot the film using a hand-cranked film camera while riding on the front of a streetcar. You will notice that at that time Vancouverites were still travelling on the left-side of the road. Among the streets travelled in Vancouver are Granville Street, with a glimpse of the old CPR station, West Hastings Street, Carrall Street, West Cordova Street, Cambie Street, Robson Street, and Davie Street. Music and sound effects were added to this version, the original was silent.
