Historic Sites of Manitoba: East Kildonan Municipal Office (414 Winterton Avenue, Winnipeg)

Built in 1902 and originally located on Henderson Highway, this building served until the 1920s as the home for municipal office Albert R. Bredin. When the Rural Municipality of East Kildonan was incorporated, it was purchased and used from 1940 to 1951 as municipal office space. The building was moved to its present location in 1951 and renovated back into a private residence.
