Water Damage

On my last trip to Kingston I rescued these slides from a bit of a flood happening in my mother’s basement.

They are a collection of personal photos my grandfather, Eric W. Thrift, took of family, friends and travel events; and photos he took for work of architecture, planned communities and new developments like Regent Park as they were being build.
