The Victoria Building was named for Queen Victoria,
the Queen of England. The building was not popular and had a
reputation for being too exclusive. The public visiting hours
were short and many who entered felt unwelcome. There was a fine
library on the first floor next to an elegantly decorated room.
The furniture in the room was for sale.
