Aberdeen Pavilion: Then and Now

I recently saw a National Archive photo of the Aberdeen Pavilion, at Lansdowne Park, from 1903, when the building was only five years old, and I thought that I would share it with you.

Library and Archives Canada

It hasn't changed much.


I've wondered: has it always been painted yellow? For as long as I can remember, the Cattle Castle, as it's nicknamed, has been some light shade of yellow.

Now, nearly 125 years old, I can't imagine Ottawa without this heritage landmark. Can you?

Happy Tuesday!
