Rising above Victoria's Inner Harbour is the modestly art deco tower that marks the Visitor's Information Center. I don't believe this tower has any function other than decorative. The clock is clearly no longer working. The lower portion of the visitor center can be seen in context in the background of an earlier post. Victoria derives much of its income from tourism.

There's something timeless about this image. Nice composition, and thanks for the links.
ReplyDeleteOriginally that building was a gas station/garage. There was a powerful spotlight on top of the tower.
