Shamrock Motel (1961)

675 Superior Street at Douglas

Archt. F.A. Schultze

One of the few surviving early walk-up motels, the Shamrock is well preserved and well placed in proximity to Victoria's major tourist attractions: parks, museums, and Downtown retail. The formula, which saw a balconied front and business rear, reduced the usable ground floor by providing for parking, tucked in under the rear elevation.
