    I live in Victoria
    It’s nice to see Victoria as it was and not what it has become

    The houses being bulldozed look like the ones which were destroyed to make way for the Blanshard Street project. Lots of them were removed in the Hillside area. No excavators, hardhats, or hi vis vests back then! I remember the Sudbury II quite well. It was a deep sea tug and a friends father was an engineer on it. This video brings back lots of memories from when I was young. Thanks for posting!

    Too bad there's no sound track or narration to explain what we're looking at.

    Very sad to see the destruction of the beautiful home. I live on Vancouver Island and I used to like to visit Victoria but since the 1980s it is not anything I want to see.May as well visit downtown eastside in Vancouver. Beacon Hill Park used to be beautiful. Last time I was there, the grass was almost knee high, there was garbage everywhere.....it looked like a homeless camp.

    First hand proof that you can have a "desirable" place to live that is still affordable.

    At ~3:15 bulldozing a Queen Anne style wooden house: wow what a waste of good wood. Glad to see demolitions today use “unbuilding” & recycling of the materials.
