Photograph - Railway level crossing in Glenferrie Road, Glenferrie, E.J. Dower, 1912
... Railway level crossing in Glenferrie Road, Glenferrie... on vertical card showing the original railway level crossing... level crossing in Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn, before a railway ...Contextual or historic information One of a series of photographs, taken by Edgar James Dower in the second decade of the twentieth century. Born and raised in Olinda, his family later moved to Surrey Hills. He worked as an adult as a clerk in the city office of the Metropolitan Gas Company, and in his role as a 'collector', he was able to photograph scenes including the construction of tramlines and associated buildings in Kew, Hawthorn, Camberwell and Surrey Hills. Later he established a real estate agency with his brother - the E.J. Dower Real Estate Agency, Dandenong Office.The image is an historically significant record of the development of transport infrastructure which was used to connect Victorians in the first two decades of the twentieth century. This development resulted from increases in population and the consequent extension of Melbourne's suburbs. The photographs, both individually and collectively, richly detail the labour of workers and the tools and machinery used to create and extend Melbourne's tram network in the years preceding and during World War 1.Two faded original horizontal photographs, mounted on vertical card showing the original railway level crossing in Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn, before a railway overpass was constructed and the laying of the electric tramline. The two photos depict northern and southern views of the crossing. Dimensions: Photo 1 106 x 157 mm Photo 2 107 x 147 mm Mount 249 x 197 mmAnnotated recto: "Showing tramway gates at Glenferrie, taken 1912 by E.J.
