THE FIRST 20 years of the 20th Century saw tremendous change to
the garrison town of SYDNEY. The TOP picture shows the ROYAL BANK
of CANADA building. A close look, and you'll  notice the LION at the
TOP CENTER. This LION was salvaged upon demolation of this fine
example of architecture and material of its day. The LION is
presently erected on the ESPLANADE, near the GOVERNMENT WHARF.
