EDITORS COMMENTS
This bird's eye view print dates back to 1912 and showcases the meticulously planned expansion of St. John's Harbour in New Brunswick, Canada. The intricate details of the 1912 plans are vividly depicted, offering a glimpse into the engineering marvel of the time. The harbor, located at the northwestern end of Courtenay Bay, was undergoing significant developments to accommodate larger boats and improve navigation. The print reveals the strategic layout of the harbor, with its various wharves, docks, and channels. The measured lines and labels on the print provide a clear indication of the meticulous planning and precision involved in the project. The natural beauty of the surrounding landscape, including the rugged coastline and the tranquil waters of Courtenay Bay, add to the charm of the image. Bird's eye views were a popular way to represent urban and architectural developments during this era, allowing people to visualize the grand scale and complexity of projects. This print of St. John's Harbour is a testament to the ingenuity and ambition of the engineers and planners of the time, who sought to harness the potential of the harbor to support the growing commercial and transportation needs of the region. The print is a fascinating historical artifact, offering a unique perspective on the past and the evolution of St. John's Harbour. It is a reminder of the rich maritime heritage of New Brunswick and the importance of waterways in shaping the economic and cultural landscape of the province.
