1960 – Charterhouse Motor Hotel, York Avenue, Winnipeg
Architect: Waisman Ross
Still an hotel today, the Charterhouse has been renovated several times and bears little resemblance to its original appearance. Upon opening the hotel had 100 rooms, a public pool, coffee shop, cocktail lounge and bar, a rooftop garden and parking for 200 cars. Extra floors have been added but the continuous balconies on the west side still remain.
