Custodial history

Scope and content

10126 - 100 Street.
This wonderfully unique structure was built for the Canada Permanent Mortgage Corporation of Toronto. At the time it was constructed in 1910, the company was considered to be one of the oldest and largest loan institutions in Canada, and had been in Edmonton since 1901. This three storey brick and stone structure housed the company's provincial headquarters in Alberta. The building was designed by renowned architect Roland Lines and constructed by Pheasey and Batson at a cost of around $70,000.
The building was constructed of reinforced concrete and was advertised as, "the only fire-proof building in Edmonton". It featured a steel staircase and other steel fittings, including the window casements. Interiors included tile flooring, plaster columns and pilasters, enriched cornices, and oak fittings.
