To house the various government departments now here and to leave a margin for future expansion such as a metropolis like this will require, a ten-story building of generous size is .required. Such a building Mr. Stevens estimates,, would cost at least .$1,000,000 and would be a good investment for the government at that, in view of the high rents being paid for offices now rented.

Description | The British Columbia Record was published in Vancouver, and ran from June 1916 to July 1922. The Record was published every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. As the official publication for the Architectural Institute of B.C., the B.C.

The Record subsequently evolved into the Journal of Commerce. |
