Promotional drawing of the Chateau Laurier Hotel, Ottawa, showing (left to right) the Parliament Buildings, Post Office, Chateau Laurier Hotel, and Central Union Passenger Station. Artist unknown, ca. 1912. (Ottawa City Archives, CA7633) Figure 1 (right). Chateau Frontenac Hotel, Quebec City, 1892-93; Bruce Price, architect. (CP Corporate Archives, A-4989) TX ~h the construction of the Chateau Frontenac Hotel in 1892-93 on the heights of r r Quebec City (figure 1), American architect Bruce Price (1845-1903) introduced the chateau style to Canada. Built for the Canadian Pacific Railway, the monumental hotel estab­ lished a precedent for a series of distinctive railway hotels across the country that served to as­ sociate the style with nationalist sentiment well into the 20th century.1 The prolonged life of the chateau style was not sustained by the CPR, however; the company completed its last chateauesque hotel in 1908, just as the mode was being embraced by the CPR's chief com­ petitor, the Grand Trunk Railway. How the chateau style came to be adopted by the GTR, and how it was utilized in three major hotels- the Chateau Laurier Hotel in Ottawa, the Fort Garry Hotel in Winnipeg, and the Macdonald Hotel in Edmonton -was closely related to the background and rise to prominence of the architects, Montreal natives George Allan Ross (1879-1946) and David Huron MacFarlane (1875-1950). According to Lovell's Montreal City Directory, 1900-01, George Ross2 worked as a draughtsman in the Montreal offices of the GTR, which was probably his first training in ar­ chitecture, and possibly a consideration when his firm later obtained the contracts for the GTR hotels.

  • The Best of British Columbia & the Canadian Rockies
    1 The Best of British Columbia & the Canadian Rockies British Columbia and the Canadian Rockies, which stretch across the provincial border into Alberta, are extravagantly scenic and quietly sophisticated. The diversity of landscapes is astounding: You’ll travel from cactus-studded desert to soaring mountaintops and on to wilderness ocean beaches. You can visit traditional First Nations (Native Canadian) villages, thread through market stalls in the largest Chinese commu- nity outside of Asia, and cheer on cowboys at an old-fashioned rodeo. As for creature comforts, British Columbia and the Rockies are famed for their luxury hotels, rustic guest ranches, quiet inns, and B&Bs. And the food? With Alberta beef, Pacific salmon, and some of the world’s most fertile farm and orchard land, these two provinces champion excellent regional cuisine. Finally, there’s no better place to get outdoors and enjoy yourself. These areas are flush with ski resorts and golf courses, hiking is a near universal passion, and you’ll find no better spot on earth to try your hand at adventure sports like sea kayaking, trail riding, or scuba diving. This guide is chock-full of recommendations and tips to help you plan and enjoy your trip to western Canada; the following are the best of the best, places and experiences you won’t want to miss. 1 THE BEST TRAVEL EXPERIENCES • Wandering Vancouver’s West End: afternoon tea at the Empress is world- Vancouver is one of the most cosmo- renowned, a little stuffy, and very politan cities in the world, and wander- expensive; if that doesn’t sound like fun ing the streets, people-watching, and to you, we’ll show you other places sipping cappuccinos at street cafes can where tea is more reasonably priced and fill an entire weekend.
