Original Toronto Star caption: A 200-ton house nears the end of its journey through downtown Toronto as a truck eases it toward a new site near the Canada Life Building at University Ave. and Queen St. The building - the 150-year-old Campbell House-was moved inch by painstaking inch from its original site at Adelaid and Jarvis Sts. on giant dollies. Hundreds of persons marched with the house along its one-mile route. Traffic lights and signs were taken down; manholes had to be shored up.
