Historic Sites of Manitoba: Allman Block (592-594 Main Street, Winnipeg)

Built in 1904 on a design by Winnipeg architect J. H. G. Russell, this three-storey brick structure was occupied by clothier Daniel Flynn Allman until about 1923. It subsequently accommodated a succession of businesses. In November 2014, the bulding became a municipally-designated historic site.
