Historic Sites of Manitoba: Maley House / “Casa Maley” (1605 Victoria Avenue, Brandon)

Designed by the local architectural firm of Shillinglaw and Marshall, Maley House was constructed in 1912 at the corner of Victoria Avenue and 16th Street by builder Alexander McDonald, at an estimated cost of $14,000. Built for brewer Henry F. Maley, the house was erected near the end of Brandon’s great economic boom that resulted in several stately homes in the central area of the city.

When Maley left Brandon around 1917, the house was purchased by Dr. J. S. McDiarmid, whose family occupied it for the next sixty years. It was later operated as a bed and breakfast and, in early 2010, as the home of a medical clinic.
