Edmonton Then & Now - Capitol Theater

In its early days, the theatre at 10065 Jasper Avenue had seating for more than 1,000 patrons, and was managed by a gentleman named Max Allen. It also had a small stage for live performances and the entrance resided between a pipe shop, Smoke Shops Ltd., on the left at 10063 and jeweller H.B. Kline & Sons on the right at 10069. Both businesses operated at the location for the next 54 years. [source]

St. Josephs Basilica - Then & Now

When Edmonton's St. Josephs Basilica was originally built in 1924 it was just a just a small Crypt Church. The beautiful Cathedral that we know and love today was constructed on top of the old Crypt in 1961.

The lower entrance to the old Crypt still remains and is used today for banquets and special events. Use the street view arrows below and take a look inside.
