Where on Earth do you find such wonderful photos of the downtown area? I grew up in Brockville, and have seen a number of changes since being a child, but seeing the erection of the war memorial and the state of the town at the time is simply amazing.

Hello,
I am doing a forensic analysis on Isaac Brock and wonder if you have any other photos of the bust of Brock (same as the one on this site) that you may be able to kindly share with me? I would love to come and photograph it myself but I am in Newfoundland at present.
Thanks and hope to hear from you soon.
Best,
Christian Corbet
