COMPETITIONS

VICTORIA, B.C., Christ Church Anglican Cathedral, 1871. John Teague was one of five architects invited to submit a design for this project, including 4 architects from Victoria, and a design from the leading British architect Benjamin Ferrey (1810-1880), of London, England. Teague was awarded First Premium for his proposal (Victoria Daily Standard, 22 April 1871, 3). However, his scheme was later shelved, and the following year a new design by H.O. Tiedemann was accepted in January 1872 and completed by October of that year.
