Letter to the editor: History question

Does anyone know when the old provincial government buildings on the former HBC lands, which made up the original Fort George Park (a BC Centennial project in 1957/58) and are now Lheidli T'enneh Memorial Park - were torn down or moved?

Does anyone know when the old provincial government buildings on the former HBC lands, which made up the original Fort George Park (a BC Centennial project in 1957/58) and are now Lheidli T'enneh Memorial Park - were torn down or moved?

These buildings, which included a government office, jail, and courtroom, were abandoned in favor of the former Alexandra Hotel on Brunswick and Third. Plans to build a lumber mill/pulp mill on the site collapsed in early 1927. Any help would be warmly appreciated. I can be reached at [email protected].
