Vancouver - The Jungle, 1932?

Vancouver - The Jungle, 1932?

HP009124>HP009131 are of "hobo camps" or "jungles" in Vancouver. Some confusion exists over the date as these camps apparently were destroyed by the City of Vancouver in 1931 after a typhoid outbreak. There were at least four "jungles" and it is difficult to identify any of the locations in the images. There were four hobo jungles in the East End and these photographs may all be from the same camp or they may document conditions in more than one camp. Possible locations include False Creek; Prior Street close to Campbell Avenue and the CNR yard; Georgia Street Viaduct; and on the harbour at the end of Dunlevy Avenue.
