The Bowker Building  by bkbinthecity

The Bowker Building

This building located just north of the Legislative Building was built in 1931 to house the offices of the Attorney General. Today it is home to office space for the Provincial Government
Quite harsh architecture isn't it? Or is it just the snow makes it that way?

I agree with wylie @pusspup the architecture does look harsh. Almost has a Russian military feel to it

Love the cleared road leading all the way to the building.

I like all the lines in this picture (the poles, streets and building), but do not think the building is pretty...

You can always tell a government building. They almost always are built in the simplest most efficient style.

A very symmetrical building. Symmetry appeals to me. It's nice you were able to avoid people and vehicle. Well done.

@randystreat Thanks Kathy. This is the back of the building which faces out on Capitol Plaza which is pedestrians only
