The Entire Triplet
All three loading bays show up in this view of the back of a Federal building on Langley Street.
That curved structure in the foreground is the “Langley Street Loo” according to this reference, (which might not work on a mobile device not equipped with google maps/street view).
If you do look at that link, can any of you explain why so much space would be left open and unbuilt in the middle of floors 3, 4 and 5?
Was it too let more light into those floors without having real courtyards or atriums?

I’m sure I must have walked or driven past that building many times in the past, but I certainly never noticed the oddity of all that empty space! Very strange indeed. I have no idea what it was intended for. As for the loo – that must have been added after I moved away from Victoria.

Thanks Laurie – I only notice it once I started taking pictures.
The loos (there are several around downtown) are a recent idea to counteract public urination once the clubs and pubs let out. Better by far than putting more police on the streets to wave batons at people with swollen bladders!

For sure – and what an image your description conjures up for me! 🙂

Sorry about that! It’s my interpretation of news stories as I long ago stopped being downtown at closing time.

I can relate to that, even if there was a “downtown” here where I live. 🙂
