More Information
Built at an estimated cost of $100,000, this building was constructed as the new home of the Manitoba Association of Registered Nurses, which was previously located at 247 Balmoral Street. A second storey has been added to the initial design. At the time of construction the nurses' association had a membership of over 5,000 and a staff of ten. The structure, as conceived by Michael Rattray, represents a modernist approach, with extensive south-facing windows, originally shielded from the sidewalk by a small area of planting.
