"VWictoriaville is not beingbuilt so much by business people as it is by construction people. Our President is an astute professianal engineer. There is a teamn of cornritted engineers, trades people and building material suppliers that has put their money into this project ta prove a point: that luxury living for less is very achievable in the 90's.
