  • Address: 1120 Faithful Street
    Address: 1120 Faithful Street Description of historic place: 1120 Faithful Street is a wood frame two-storey "severely" symmetrical Georgian Revival residence located in the southwestern quadrant of Victoria's Fairfield neighbourhood. The interior is also designated. Heritage value: The historic place, built in 1912, is valued for its architecture, its architect, its original owner, and what is says about housing for the growing merchant class during the building boom in pre-World War I Victoria. 1120 Faithful Street is valued as probably the best example of the Edwardian Classical Revival style in Victoria. The style, characterized by the revival of classical details such as applied columns, prominent cornices and entablatures, was monumental and imposing and so was popular with institutions such as banks and courthouses. Its setting in mature landscaped grounds adds to the monumentality of the structure. The separate garage was constructed at the same time as the house and is also a valued asset. A scroll wire fence with matching gate reinforces the architecture of the dwelling. There is heritage value in the architect Francis Mawson Rattenbury. Rattenbury was born in 1867 in Leeds, England, he arrived in Vancouver in 1891. He secured the commission for Legislative Buildings in Victoria soon after his arrival and also worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway as their Western Division Architect. His most well-known work for the CPR was the Empress, a Chateau-style hotel built in 1904-1908 in Victoria, with two wings added in 1909-1914. The architect, however, fell out with the CPR and went to work for their competition, the Grand Trunk Pacific Railroad.

  • Grand Trunk Railway
    History of the Grand Trunk Railway Local History at the St. Thomas Public Library 10 November 1852: The Grand Trunk Railway (GTR) is formally incorporated to construct a main railway line serving Ontario and Quebec, connecting Chicago with Portland, Maine. It is financed by a group of private British investors and fronted by Sir Francis Hincks, who is determined to build a main trunk line for eastern Canada. 1853: The Grand Trunk purchases five small railroad companies: the St. Lawrence & Atlantic (which reaches from Longueil, Quebec to Portland, Maine), Quebec & Richmond, Toronto & Guelph, Grand Junction, and Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada East. October 1856: The main line between Montreal and Toronto is opened. It is built with the Canadian Standard Gauge, 5’6”. December 1859: The Victoria Bridge is opened to traffic. It is a tubular bridge built originally for rail traffic, although lanes for automobiles will be added in 1927. It is the first bridge to span the St. Lawrence River, and is built especially for withstanding the ice and winter conditions of the river. The Victoria Bridge, Montreal, Quebec. 1859: An extension of the main line to Sarnia via Guelph, Stratford, and London is opened. The Grand Trunk Railway now provides through transportation from Sarnia to the Atlantic coast, a distance of 800 miles. 1860: The Grand Trunk acquires an extension from Quebec City to Rivière-du-Loup. 1861: The GTR has accumulated a debt of several hundred thousand pounds sterling as the result of expansion and overestimating the demand for rail service. Sir Edward William Watkin, railway chairman and politician, is sent from London to sort out the company’s financial situation.

This case illustrates how ‘irrational exuberance’1 affected individuals in both the public and private sector, particularly Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier and corporate giant Sir William Mackenzie. Our story begins in July 1917, when the consequences of irrational exuberance were being felt, by some for the first time. The world was at war and Canadian Prime Minister Robert Borden had returned to Canada from meetings of the Imperial War Cabinet in London, where the news was not good.

  • Visionaries and Risk-Takers: the First Hundred Years of the Fort Garry Hotel
    Visionaries and Risk-Takers: The First Hundred Years of the Fort Garry Hotel by Giles Bugailiskis Winnipeg, Manitoba onumental buildings have a history that goes beyond their individual style and design features. MOftentimes the story of the owner/entrepreneur, taking a business risk to provide a needed service to the local community, is never told. Nor is the story told about the individuals who provide a public face of the enterprise, the individuals that represent the investor’s vision. My aim is to do just that, to recall the fortunes of the Fort Garry Hotel, a grand, luxurious Winnipeg landmark on Broadway. The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Era 1904–1919 At the end of the 19th century all the pieces of the puzzle were coming together in the development of Western Canada. British capital was once again flowing into the country, the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) was expanding in the West, eastern manufacturers were seeking new markets for their goods and the newly elected Liberal government of Sir Wilfred Laurier was pushing for increased immigration and, perhaps most importantly, courting railways to compete with the CPR. Prime Minister Laurier held intensive secret negotiations with Charles Melville Hays, General Manager of the British- owned Grand Trunk Railway (GTR), incorporated in 1851 and operating lines in United States, Quebec and southern Ontario. The results of the negotiations, announced in Parliament in July 1903, underlined Hays’ risk-taking Archives of Manitoba, Foote 1536, N2567. nature and Laurier’s desire for railway expansion into the Winnipeg photographer Lewis Foote took this view of the Fort West.
