Nanaimo Airport

Der Nanaimo Airport ist ein internationaler Flughafen auf Vancouver Island, in der kanadischen Provinz British Columbia. Er liegt in der Zeitzone UTC-8 (DST-7). Betreiber des Flughafens ist die Nanaimo Airport Commission. Da der Platz durch Nav Canada als Airport of Entry klassifiziert ist und dort Beamte der Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) stationiert sind, ist hier eine Einreise aus dem Ausland möglich. Geschichte 1942 wurde das Gelände des heutigen Flughafens von der Royal Canadian Air Force erworben. Diese errichtete hier eine Segelflugschule und betrieb einen Notlandeplatz. Der Flughafen wurde dann nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg an die Stadt Nanaimo verpachtet und als ziviler Flughafen betrieben. Der erste Versuch der kanadischen Bundesbehörden, das Gelände an die Stadt oder den Bezirk zu verkaufen, scheiterte. Auf Grund unterbliebener Wartungsarbeiten verfiel der Platz schließlich. Erst 1975 konnte mit Mitteln aus verschiedenen Förderprogrammen eine umfangreiche Sanierung vorgenommen werden. Weitere Ausbauarbeiten in Form der Errichtung von Wartungshallen erfolgten 1985. 1990 wurde ein neues Terminal-Gebäude, verbunden mit den Arbeiten an der Straßenanbindung und der Errichtung eines Parkplatzes, gebaut. 1994 erfolgte der Verkauf des Geländes an die zwischenzeitlich eingerichtete Nanaimo Airport Commission. Das Terminal des Flughafens wurde im Jahr 1999 nach dem in Nanaimo geborenen Jagdflieger aus dem Ersten Weltkrieg Raymond Collishaw benannt. Lage Der Regionalflughafen liegt etwa 13 Kilometer südsüdöstlich von Nanaimo und etwa 9 Kilometer nordnordwestlich von Ladysmith. Südlich des Flughafens verläuft der Trans-Canada Highway (Highway 1). Verkehrsanbindung An den öffentlichen Personennahverkehr ist der Flughafen durch eine Buslinie des „Regional District of Nanaimo Transit System“ angebunden, welches von BC Transit in Kooperation betrieben wird. Das System bietet u. a. Verbindungen zum Departure Bay Ferry Terminal sowie über regionale Buslinien auch nach Lantzville, Parksville und Qualicum Beach.

Nanaimo Airport

Nanaimo Airport (IATA: YCD, ICAO: CYCD) is a privately owned and operated regional airport located 7 nautical miles (13 km; 8.1 mi) south southeast of Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada. In 1999, the air terminal was named in honour of World War I ace Raymond Collishaw who was born in Nanaimo. The Nanaimo-Collishaw Air Terminal is the passenger terminal for the airport. The Nanaimo Airport currently has only one available runway for instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions, runway 16. This is because the approach to the north-facing runway (runway 34) is a dogleg approach that follows the Ladysmith Harbour. Expansion In 2010, the Nanaimo Airport Commission announced the completion of a significant runway expansion. The runway length increased by almost 1,600 ft (490 m) to accommodate larger aircraft, as well as the addition of a third taxiway (labelled Charlie), to allow direct access to the threshold of runway 16. Shortly after the runway expansion, Nanaimo Airport saw an increase in commercial traffic because of the subsequent installation of an advanced instrument landing system (ILS) and associated lighting on the south-facing runway 16. This would soon attract the likes of WestJet Encore and Air Canada Rouge among the existing services offered by Jazz Aviation. Between April 2018 and February 2020, a major terminal expansion took place, increasing the terminal's screening capacity from 100 passengers per hour to 1,000 passengers per hour. The apron was also expanded to compensate for the 60% size increase of the new terminal building. The air terminal saw 435,000 passengers pass through its gates in 2018. Airlines and destinations Nanaimo Airport provides service to Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Kelowna, and seasonally to Toronto via Air Canada Express, Pacific Coastal Airlines, WestJet, and WestJet Encore.

Langley Speedway (British Columbia)

Langley Speedway was a 1/4-mile paved oval track used for stock car racing located in Langley, British Columbia. The track opened on June 13, 1965 (there are conflicting references on the track length), and closed in 1984. The track hosted numerous classes of racing during its operational existence, including several visits from the NASCAR Winston West series in the 1970s. For the last few years prior to its closing due to its lease not being renewed, the track was known as Action Raceway. History Langley Speedway was founded by Craig Frazier in 1963, and was included in a 1969 purchase of land by the Vancouver-Fraser Park District, which later became a part of the Greater Vancouver Regional District, for use as a park. Frazier sold the land and signed a ten-year lease, operating the track until it was taken over by Gordon Hemrich in 1977. After the ten-year lease expired in 1979, renewals were year-to-year, and increasing pressure was brought by local governments with regards to number of events and other issues. Eventually, in 1984, after its operations were taken over by the Lower Mainland Oval Racing Association, the track was closed. Today, it is part of Campbell Valley Regional Park. The Langley Speedway Historical Society (LSHS) has lobbied governments in the area to preserve the facility, holding clean-up events at and around the track. In 2006, the GVRD Parks Committee voted unanimously to support heritage listing of the speedway. The GVRD Board also voted unanimously to support the listing. In September 2006, the Council of the Township of Langley voted unanimously to include Langley Speedway on its Heritage Resource Listing. The LSHS is currently working with the GVRD staff and other interested groups in its efforts to preserve the site and promote it for various event uses, including car shows. Racing According to the Langley Speedway Historical Society, Langley Speedway is one of only three locations in British Columbia that has hosted NASCAR events over the years. Winston West races took place in 1971, 1972, 1978 and 1981; Hershel McGriff was a winner of 150-mile races in 1971 and 1972. NASCAR late-model Sportsman races also took place at the track, and the Canadian American Modified Racing Association also used the facility.

Dominion Building

Das Dominion Building (manchmal auch als Dominion Bank Building bezeichnet) ist ein Hochhaus im Stadtteil Downtown der kanadischen Stadt Vancouver. Es befindet sich im Stadtteil Gastown an der 207 West Hastings Street. Das 53 m (14 Stockwerke) hohe, im Stil des Second Empire errichtete Dominion Building ist das älteste Hochhaus der Stadt, bei dem die Stahlskelett-Bauweise angewendet wurde. Den Bau hatte der aus Deutschland stammende Gustav Konstantin von Alvensleben finanziert. Das Dominion Building wurde 1908 eröffnet und war bis 1910 das höchste Gebäude im gesamten Britischen Empire. Heute steht es unter Denkmalschutz. An der Rückseite des Gebäudes, in der Cambie Street, wurden einzelne Szenen des Films Die unendliche Geschichte gedreht.

Dominion Building

The Dominion Building (originally Dominion Trust Building) is a commercial building in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Located on the edge of Gastown (207 West Hastings St), it was Vancouver's first steel-framed high-rise. Its architect was John S. Helyer, who is said to have died after falling off the staircase in the front of the building, though this is an urban legend. The financier of the structure was the Count Alvo von Alvensleben from Germany, who was active in Vancouver's financial scene at the time. It was known generally that von Alvensleben was one of the Kaiser's godsons. It was held at the time that he was a front for the Kaiser's money, which carried the suggestion that the Empire's tallest building had been built by its greatest rival, a rumour which disregards the fact that the tallest building in the Empire was in fact the Trader’s Bank Building in Toronto, completed in 1906 at 55.39m in height. Today it is a provincially designated Class "A" heritage structure. Owned by Newton Investments Limited, it was restored by restoration expert Read Jones Christofferson. The building's tenants have included film/TV production company, Haddock Entertainment, numerous law firms, clothing designers, Dae photo studio, record labels, antiquarian booksellers, Kokoro Dance, professional web developers, marketing agency, Bowery Creative, the office of the Green Party of Vancouver, a dentist, non-profit organizations such as Living Oceans Society and Fair Trade Vancouver and a Lebanese restaurant, Nuba. The Dominion Building sits across the street from Victory Square, site of the former provincial courthouse, which was relocated to Georgia Street in 1913. The Dominion Building was at the hub of the city's financial and legal district until that move. The backside of the building (containing the emergency staircases) and Cambie Street was filmed during the street scenes of The Neverending Story. It can be seen from Water Street. The Dominion Building can also be seen at the end of Jennifer Lopez's 2023 film,The Mother, as she looks down into Victory Square from the 14th floor, nearing the end of the film. The Dominion Building, as well as other elements of Victory Square, were filmed for scenes in an abandoned city in Battlestar Galactica. The initial rooftop chase scene from Blade: Trinity was shot at the Dominion building. The 2012 TV show Alcatraz also used this as a location in the opening episode, although the program was set in San Francisco, much of the location work was done in Vancouver. The Dominion building can also be seen in the background later in the series when a landmine is found in Victory Square. Can Lit. author Timothy Taylor. maintains a writing office in this building.
