Businesses on the western side of Oxford Street, Levin, c.1900. The first to the left is W. Jamieson who was a cabinetmaker and upholsterer. This shop was situated where Noel Leeming is situated today (2001). All the businesses north to the Levin Hotel at the Oxford Street, Queen Street intersection are shown.
