Constructing the BC Legislature: The Library
By joel on Jan 5, 2009 | In History, Images

This is a continuation of my series on the construction of the British Columbia Legislature, right here in James Bay. If you are interested and would like to read more, you will find links to the previous installments at the end of this post.
I thought I would ease back into blogging after the holidays with an exploration of what I think are some of the more interesting features of the British Columbia Legislature's structure and design. And I thought I would start with the library, not just because I walk by it every day, but because it's full of decorative flourishes and stands as a noteworthy example of late nineteenth and early twentieth century public arcitecture.
