These editorials, and the rumour that members of Victoria’s tiny German community were “celebrating” the Lusitania’s sinking, had a tragic effect. On the evening of Saturday, May 8, a rowdy and drunken crowd of off-duty soldiers marched from their Willows camp to Victoria, spoiling for a fight. Their target: businesses of Victoria’s small German community.

 

The riot had two epicentres: the Hotel Blanshard at Blanshard and Johnson, and the German Club at Government and Courtenay. At the hotel, originally named the Kaiserhof and built in 1912 by Max Leiser, a prominent liquor merchant, the soldiers destroyed the bar and its German-themed decor. All the noise attracted the Saturday night crowd, curious to see what all the fuss was about.

I'm thinking the Douglas Building near the Leg. Just put a big eagle on top.

How about the hotel in Ladysmith with the swastikas in the brickwork?

Ignoring the fact "we" are in the Japanese sphere :) since Hitler's chief architect, Albert Speer, was noted for use of concrete and designing imposing 'modernist' structures, the closest example I can think of might be the Federal building on Government street.

Apparently Deadpool 2 is filming at Hatley castle. That would be one of the larger films in a while.

I can confirm that the cast and crew are in town, can't say more than that.

Possible for Victoria? I think they could build this at Hillside Mall. but most likely in the West Shores
