BO-47-1450 : Victoria Downtown
This is a shot of downtown Victoria from 1947 looking south-east towards Fairfield. The Hudson Bay Company store can be seen just bottom-left of center. It also looks like there is a bit of a rail yard just off Chatham Street.
Off center in this photo, is a tall square building. Does anyone know what this building is. South of The Bay on Douglas. I am not sure if it’s there there.
We have a photo of my husbands Grandfather and Grandmother walking south from that area. One of those photos taken of people on the street by photographers. Taken in 1963.
Thanks for any help. We’re heading to Victoria next week and would like to locate as close as possible where the photo was taken.
