Ottawa’s Building Permits, 1949

As a follow-up on yesterday’s transcription of a list of building permits issued in 1950, I have done the same for 1949.

Unlike the 1950 list, the 1949 edition was not limited to permits valued at $30,000 and above. Though unstated, the floor that year was $15,000.
