Steakhouse on Robson Street

You're looking at 1101 Robson Street, located right at the intersection of Robson and Thurlow Streets. The photograph, taken in 1969, shows various stores (listed below) as well as ongoing construction work along Robson Street.

• New York Barbershop (1111 Robson Street)
• Yarn Barn (1109 Robson Street)
• India House Gifts (1105 Robson Street)
• Traveller Restaurant and Steakhouse (1101 Robson Street)

Looking at these images, I can't help but wish there were still a steakhouse on that corner today—instead of a shoe store that isn’t even open 24 hours!
