Brockville Ontario - Canada - King St. W. and Court House Ave - John H, Fulford Fountain

            Their wishes were granted, and when Buell’s offer of a site was chosen, the plans for a new court house were finalized. For a nominal fee of 20 pounds, William Buell signed over a deed to the Crown for sufficient land to include a large square and a wide road running down to the River St. Lawrence. The new District of Johnstown Court House was finished in 1810 and the broad thoroughfare was opened to the river.

Less than ten years after the above photograph was taken, in 1916, the street was paved and a landscaped boulevard featuring the white glazed terra cotta fountain dedicated to the memory of former mayor, John H, Fulford would further transform the vista. Transportation in those days was strictly horse-drawn and traffic lights, a thing of the future. 124
