Christine McGugan in front of 18 Teck Street. My mother (nee Walsh) was born and brought up here. We lived there until about 1961 then moved to Upholland. Note the gated entryway into the communal backyard directly past the front door, the cobblestones and the old truck at the far end. Teck Street was split by Cambridge Street. Photo taken on Walking Day.

Can you tell me if Teck St was near Spring Street off Darlington St. For family history purposes.

Teck Street's only junction was with Cambridge Street, off Darlington Street East. Cambridge Street was where St Patrick's Way is now, I believe.

Didn't this street run onto Silver St? I seem to recall walking along there to get onto Darlington St via Silver St.

Just doing some family research. My grandfather was a child at #6 Teck St in the 1890 census. Love the photo!
