This two-storey brick and Tyndall stone trimmed duplex residence on Manitoba Avenue in Winnipeg, measuring 31 feet by 44 feet, and 10 feet by 14 feet, was designed by local architect David A. Abramovitch and built in 1913 by owner C. Stopoll at a cost of about $4,500. It contained two residential suites.
At the time of a 2025 site visit, the building has been heavily renovated from its original appearance, with the Tyndall Stone painted blue and its original front porch removed.
