| Date(s) | 1950s |
| Description | Digital image of the top section of a building in the Columbia Market/Columbia Square area in the 1950s, most likely part of Columbia Dwellings. The image focusses on a section which has largely been demolished, leaving interior walls, fixtures and fittings exposed. Many of the surrounding windows in the building are broken or have been boarded up, however, you can make out one or two figures in the windows of the right hand side of the building, including a man leaning out of a window and what looks like a person's hand on the window frame of another. |
