Where Is This?
Abandon all hope ye who enter here! What is this lady about to walk into? The gates of Hell? A fort? A prison? Does anyone recognize this location? The photo is from the 1940's.

About Me
- Name: Ookpik
- Location: Michigan, United States
I began my interest in vernacular photography by a chance acquisition of over 10,000 negatives dating from the late 1920's through the early 1970's. Luckily, I knew what I had was something more than "someone's old pictures." This cache of old images became the impetus for me to create two Photoblogs: Ookpik’s Negativity and Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes. Ookpik’s Negativity contains photos that I would like to know more about while Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes features photos of ships that I am trying to identify.

I can not be certain but that area looks vaguely familiar. It is possible it might be one of the doors to the barracks in "Fort Rod Hill" which is overlooking the ocean in Victoria, British Columbia in the municiplaity of View Royal.
Here is the link to the park but I couldn't find a phoo of those doors:

Hi Demonrider,
Thanks for the info! Someone else mentioned that it might be the entrance to the Statue of Liberty but they too were unable to find a photo.
