Built in 1939, the former Provincial building is a model of Mock Tudor design. Three houses formerly occupied the Walnut St. space, and were moved to Westview to make room for the Provincial building's construction. This building originally housed the provincial court, the jail, the forestry service, public works, government agent, relief services, and the B.C. Police headquarters for Powell River. In 1939 the total cost of constructing the building was $20,000. |
