Victoria City Hall, British Columbia
Victoria City Hall, British Columbia, Second Empire town hall in Victoria, Canada
The three-story brick building features a 105-foot clock tower, tall windows, pedimented dormers, and a metal mansard roof at Douglas Street and Pandora Avenue.
John Teague designed Victoria City Hall, which opened in 1890 and received National Historic Site designation in 1977 for its architectural and governmental importance.
The building stands on the traditional territories of the Songhees Nation and Xwsepsum Nation, representing both civic governance and Indigenous heritage connections.
The municipal government offices inside Victoria City Hall manage city operations and host regular council meetings at 1 Centennial Square in downtown Victoria.
Three different types of facades distinguish this Western Canadian governmental building, which combines concrete, brick, and stone construction materials throughout its exterior.
