Once one of Winnipeg’s most luxurious hotels,
Manitoba’s first Legislature building was built facing Kennedy Street,
The police courts and station at the corner of King and James,
The three-storied Princess Opera House opened on May 14, 1883. It could seat almost 1,400 patrons,
Anglican college founded in 1850,
Built in the boom years of the early 1880s,
A complete Victorian fantasy of a city hall,
At the corner of McDermot Avenue and Main Street,
The Winnipeg Lodging and Coffee House,
