To round out our afternoon on the Inner Harbour here is a detail of some of the columns on the classically styled Robert Bateman Centre. This was built originally to serve as the Canadian Pacific Steamship Terminal and was also designed by Francis Mawson Rattenbury, responsible for the design of the buildings in the previous two days' posts.

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.

Impressive building.
Nice trio of Rattenbury buildings in Inner Harbour.
It really is a good use of the old building.
Yes, I was not sad to see the Wax Museum go. I thought it was cheesy and a waste of this terrific building.
The Robert Bateman floor is a great display of his works.
And soon it will house the Maritime Museum which I think will be a great fit.
