(back to feature moves) Trader Vics is on the Move After many years of service, a well-known Vancouver landmark is retiring to a waterfront vineyard near the Butchart Gardens on Vancouver Island. The highly respected Polynesian dining room was known to thousands. The building was moved by barge from its historical site by the Bayshore Inn in downtown Vancouver to its new site in Brentwood Bay. Trader Vics measures some 12 x 44 metres and weighs and estimated 140 tons.
