Re: “Victoria landmark must be demolished,” Oct. 24.
The apartment above the store, referred to as the nose of the Turner Building, was my first home after I graduated from the Royal Jubilee Hospital school of nursing in January 1968.
The windows curving around the nose were in the living room and the first ones around on Birch Street were in the kitchen, making a very light and spacious apartment.
One of my favourite memories is a knock at the door around 6:30 p.m., and there was Ian bringing us the soft ice cream left from that day. Yum!
So sad to see the gaping hole left after part of the wall fell off, as that was the pink-tiled bathroom and my bedroom.
Turner’s has served the hospital community well for many years. Time to say goodbye.
