Lemieux Island Group Causeway

i put up a pair of inadequate aerial shots awhileback but since've come across this one, which depicts all the islands before infill was used to annex Lyon Island (off the northeast corner of Lemieux) & Spill Isle (off the west shore)(Duck Island, under the south end of the Prince of Wales railbridge, has already been annexed, its southern neighbouring island sticking out into the bay at right below, that whole bay later filled in) & gives a clear view of the causeway that'd connected Lemieux to Lumpy Denommee's Island, touching down on Spill, Île Écueil, Peak Island, & Île Young (dunno its dates but certainly it's depicted in a 19o9 map published by Reid's New Book Store & in a 1933 aerial photo).
