Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Bumper-to-bumper traffic clogs Queen St.; looking east toward Bay St. from a footbridge between City Hall and the Four Seasons-Sheraton. The number of cars downtown has increased for various reasons; such as the delivery of parcels by car or truck during the mail strike; and Christmas shopping.
