13526 - 101 Avenue. William Blakey was one of Edmonton's most influential architects. He arrived in Edmonton in 1907 following his brother and fellow architect, Richard to the rapidly growing city. While Richard rose to become Provincial Architect from 1912 to 1924, William worked mostly in private practice.
He designed this house for his family in 1946 to reflect his advocacy of slab grade construction and other innovations in construction methods and materials. It features a symmetrical plan with a flat roof, large overhanging eaves, corner windows, and unornamented wall surfaces. These are all characteristic of the International style.
