MLG time capsule opening this morning

The contents of a time capsule found during the renovation of Maple Leaf Gardens will be revealed today in Toronto. The opening ceremony was to begin at 10.30. Above is a picture of the 1931 corner stone laying. The capsule may have been buried the same day. See previous post by clicking headline above. The time capsule was found by workers as the building was being remodelled to house a Loblaws grocery store and an athletic centre for Ryerson University. The box was found underneath a stone at the front of Maple Leaf Gardens. Maple Leaf Gardens was built by Conn Smythe in 1931 and the Toronto Maple Leafs played there until 1999. The time capsule contents are to go on display this afternoon at Ryerson University. More to come.
