Lots of great pics in that archive. I don't recall where the CHNS building was - anybody have an address for it? Wondering if it's still there.

Broadcasting House was on Tobin St, on the south side. I loved the art deco facade of the place although the rest of the building was pretty ordinary. But it's a shame we lost that, I would have thought some sharp architect could have incorporated it into a new structure behind, and it would have been a fine and distinctive name for apartments. They moved to this building in 1940 (some accounts say 1943) and stayed there until relocating to what was then a new building on the corner of Barrington and Morris in the late '80s if memory serves. Later they moved to One Sackville Place. I think this is what's there on Tobin St. now:
