Victoria Street was built between 1829-34 as part of a series of improvements to the Old Town, with the aim of improving access around the city. Previously, access from the Grassmarket to the Lawnmarket was via the West Bow, a very steeply sloped and narrow lane. The new street was planned to demolish much of the old West Bow, and provide a broad sweeping link to the newly built George IV Bridge.
It was designed by architect Thomas Hamilton, one of the leading lights in transforming the city with neo-classical buildings and much influenced by the architecture of ancient Greece. However it was stipulated that the buildings associated with the new street should be ‘Old Flemish’ in style, and draw inspiration from the details on Heriot’s Hospital.

The Victoria Crowned Pigeon (Goura victoria) is the largest species of pigeon, native to the lowland and swamp forests of Northern New Guinea and its neighboring islands. It is known for its striking appearance, featuring vivid blue and purple feathers, a maroon breast, and elegant lace-like crests on its head. These pigeons prefer moist, low-lying areas near rivers and wetlands, and they are somewhat social, often living in small groups of 2-10 individuals. Named in honor of Queen Victoria, they are recognized for their unique beauty and size, weighing up to 7 pounds and measuring over 2 feet in length.
Victoria Quays (abans conca del canal de Sheffield) és una gran conca del canal a Sheffield, Anglaterra. Va ser construït entre el 1816 i el 1819 com a terminal del canal de Sheffield (actualment part de la navegació de Sheffield i South Yorkshire) i inclou els antics jardins del ferrocarril de Manchester, Sheffield i Lincolnshire. La conca va deixar de funcionar com a port de mercaderies el 1970 i el lloc i els edificis van ser abandonats en gran mesura. Una restauració i reurbanització de 1992-1994 va reobrir el lloc proveint nous espais d’oficines i negocis i instal·lacions de lleure, així com atraques per a embarcacions de lleure. Hi ha diversos edificis catalogats de grau II. Aquests inclouen el magatzem terminal original de 1819, el magatzem Straddle (1895-1898), un magatzem de gra (c. 1860), i una terrassa corbada d’oficines del comerciant de carbó (c. 1870).
Victoria Quays (anteriormente Sheffield Canal Basin) es una gran cuenca del canal en Sheffield, Inglaterra. Fue construido entre 1816 y 1819 como el término del Canal de Sheffield (ahora parte de la Navegación de Sheffield y South Yorkshire) e incluye los antiguos astilleros de carbón del ferrocarril de Manchester, Sheffield y Lincolnshire. La cuenca dejó de funcionar como puerto de carga en 1970 y el sitio y los edificios fueron en gran medida descuidados. Una restauración y reurbanización de 1992–1994 reabrió el sitio proporcionando nuevas oficinas y espacios de negocios e instalaciones de ocio, así como literas para embarcaciones de recreo. Hay una serie de edificios de Grado II en el sitio. Estos incluyen el Almacén Terminal original de 1819, el Almacén Straddle (1895-1898), [3] un almacén de granos (c. 1860), y una terraza curva de las oficinas de comerciantes de carbón (c. 1870).
Victoria Quays (formerly Sheffield Canal Basin) is a large canal basin in Sheffield, England. It was constructed 1816–1819 as the terminus of the Sheffield Canal (now part of the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation) and includes the former coal yards of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway. The basin ceased operation as a cargo port in 1970 and the site and buildings were largely neglected. A restoration and redevelopment of 1992–1994 reopened the site providing new office and business space and leisure facilities as well as berths for leisure canal boats. There are a number of Grade II listed buildings on the site. These include the original Terminal Warehouse of 1819,[2] the Straddle Warehouse (1895–1898), a grain warehouse (c. 1860), and a curved terrace of coal merchant's offices (c. 1870).
Victoria amazonica is the world’s largest water lily and among the largest in the Nymphaeaceae family. The first discovery was in 1801 in Bolivia and it is indigenous to the Amazon River basin’s shallow waters. This species is the national flower of the Republic of Guyana and appears on the country’s coat of arms. The flower is famous for its enormous circular leaves. The common names for the water lily include Amazon water-lily, Victoria-lily, or Giant water lily.
