This section includes various photos of interesting buildings located in miscellaneous places that I have visted (in Canada).

Clearwater Hall, Keyano College, Fort McMurray, Alberta


Lethbridge, Alberta

The Lethbridge Viaduct

Popularly known as the High Level Bridge, it was constructed between 1907–1909. The original design concept was by John Edward Schwitzer, and the final design of the bridge was by C.N. Monsarrat.

Nikka Yuko Japanese Garden

This facility opened in 1967. The landscape architect was Dr. Tadashi Kubo.

Water Tower

Several years ago, this decommissioned water tower was converted into a restaurant.

Kingston, Ontario

I was in Kingston, Ontario very briefly for a job interview in December 2006. Unfortunately, the weather was not very cooperative, and while there are lots of wonderful old buildings there, I was not able to take many photographs. Indeed, I had to take these two images from my hotel room window.

City Hall

Construction of this building was completed in 1844. The architect was George Browne. Note also the old train station located in the foreground.

Shoal Fort

Pointe-à-la-Croix, Quebec

This is a small village, located directly across the Restigouche River from Campbellton, New Brunswick. I visited this town in August, 2014.

Village Sign

 

Maison Young House

This building was built about 1830, in the traditional style. It now serves as a museum of local Acadian culture.

Fort Macleod, Alberta

Fort Macleod Town Hall

This building was built in 1903-1904 as the Territorial Court House, a function which it continued to serve until 1971. It is the oldest court house in Alberta. The building was dsesigned by David Ewart, Chief Architect of the Federal Department of Public Works.

Bonshaw, Prince Edward Island

Car Life Museum

Unfortunately, these old gas pumps have been re-painted with many layers of enamel, thus obscuring any original logos or signage.

Morley, Alberta

Chief Chiniki Travel Center

This building was still under construction in July 2015.

Canmore, Alberta

I passed through this town in July 2015.

Condo Building

I quite like the balconies.

I wanted to see an iceberg during my first visit to Newfoundland in May 2019, and I was successful!
