Rodney Black-RLB-Soulassets
The Empress Hotel.
When I took this photo on Bellville Street Victoria Canada, in September 1987, I didn't realise what an iconic hotel I was capturing on the left hand side of the road. In some respects I'm glad that I took this photo in ignorance to knowing this was a Victorian landmark. The chateau-style hotel is balanced against the red buses, lamp posts, flowers and pedestrians enjoying the magnificent day. The Hotel has a rich history commencing from its opening in 1908 as a passenger hotel for the Canadian Pacific's transport network. Two years after this #35mmfilm was taken the Empress had the royal treatment with 45 million dollar refit. Just to add to its #iconic character it also has a number of ghosts.
