For some reason I've never taken proper pics of this small block in the Fernwood neighbourhood, mainly because you have to be early to get the light right, which I wasn't. All five homes were built in 1892 as working class rental homes. Who was it again that said Victoria didn't have any old buildings outside of the Old Town in the downtown core, lol. I've come to realize that the period before WW I was the biggest boom in the City's history and there's still plenty from the 1800's.

The one true commie block building in Victoria.. called View Towers because there were supposed to be two, but after one there would never be the second. It's cast a long shadow and serious aversion ever since on tall buildings in Victoria which was still felt last week when a potential tallest building was shot down.
