Though it is no longer used as an observatory, this building and the little hilltop park in which it is situated remains a favorite spot for me. It has some of the best views in the city and we'll take a look at them later in the week.

Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

I think this is the place my friend Nigel worked at for a few months in the 90s. He's an astrophysicist. I know he spent time in Victoria. He's from England and enjoyed meals and pints at the Sticky Wicket. :)
An impressive building. I can see its appeal!
