1890 – Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal, Quebec
Architect: H. Saxon Snell & Son
Closed in 2015. “…the Royal Victoria was an immediate and lasting success as both monument and landmark. In addition to its highly visible location, this success derived from the building’s sheer scale, its picturesque configuration, its association (through the pavilion-plan typology) with the extent of the British Empire, and its romantic, Scottish baronial detailing.” Medicine by Design: The Architect and the Modern Hospital, 1893-1943 “
