New: Bottled Beer at Steamworks

Tuesday, 25 September 2012 10:09

In 1995, when Steamworks first took hold of our historic Gastown brewpub location, they discovered that the building had a rare steam heat system. A remnant from forward thinkers of a century past. Steamworks' brewmaster had only read of steam powered brewing, but had never seen a functional steam brewery. These are very rare indeed.

Baron Gallery Presents: Nite Owl

Thursday, 06 September 2012 11:30

Angus McIntyre is a retired bus driver of 41 years. A lifelong interest in transportation, lighting and urban history led him to documenting the city scene through photography. As a natural night owl, the late night shift was an obvious choice and his camera frequently went along for the ride. In the deserted streets of old East End, he captured the details of light on streetcar tracks and the faded glory of corner grocery stores. McIntyre's night time photographs of emptiness of the city and its streets show us a recent but seemingly distant past.
