Quebec Street

27 addresses on 4 blocks of Quebec Street in Mount Pleasant, with who the city directories list at each from 1905 to 1955. 2 of them still have the building the directories describe.

Start with 2649 Quebec Street: a 24-suite brick apartment house: a crowd of tenants, and a few who stayed for decades.

Who stayed

Every address on the street, decade by decade. A long run of one colour is a family that stayed; a row of changing colours is a house that turned over every time the canvasser came.
