Close enough?
EDIT:
Found it:
Offshore drilling rig built in Victoria in 1966, then the world’s largest. The rig was used to drill 14 offshore wells, all of which were dry.
Photo from Victoria Daily Times in 1966 showing offshore oil and gas drilling rig construction in Victoria's Esquimailt Harbour.
It was only built here, not used for drilling in Victoria. However, it may have had a Taco Bell on board.
The closest oil well to Victoria was an old one at Muir Creek near Sooke.

Anyway, bring on the 30-story windmill. It would be towering industrial monstrosity #3 at Ogden Point, so it has a good pedigree.
Anything to keep those attractive highrise buildings out!

What I'd like to know is, which building was it? It wasn't the tower beside those silos, was it? I think it was one of those really long buildings on one of the piers. I can't remember.

Seems the biscotti ovens were located over in the Gorge/Selkirk area.
