Esquimalt Graving Dock, Thetis Cove, Esquimalt Harbour : plans

This unit consists of plans, renderings and photographs prepared in connection with two calls for tenders on the dry dock in Thetis Cove, Esquimalt Harbour (now called Naden Graving Dock). The first call was published in the British Columbia Gazette beginning Nov. 25, 1871. The submission of Thomas A. Bulkley was the only tender (plans in item 1) received by the deadline of Mar. 20, 1872, and this was rejected. Mr. Bulkley was then hired as Chief Engineer to the British Columbia Government. He was responsible for, among other things, preparing plans and specifications to be put at the disposal of bidders when the Government invited further tenders beginning Apr. 27, 1872 (closing Nov. 15, 1872). These latter plans form the bulk of the unit.
