This two-storey stone, brick, and concrete block structure on Pearl Street in Winnipeg, near the Winnipeg General Hospital, was designed by local architects Alexander D. Melville and William Noble Melville and constructed in late 1904 at a cost of about $12,000. It closed in 1929 and was later demolished.
