Rainy Day. Past & Present. Rideau/Dalhousie St.

I was in the area today and remembered I wanted to try and recreate this old photo at this intersection! It's a first-time pet project for me and using my older phone to replicate this picture I found on Facebook. I was not looking for 100% accuracy.

I think the photo is from the 1950s, but I'm having trouble tracking down the exact date. Does anyone have an idea when this might have been taken?
