  • 194 Broadway – Manitoba Club
    194 BROADWAY – MANITOBA CLUB City of Winnipeg Historical Buildings & Resources Committee Researcher: M. Peterson August 2017 This building embodies the following heritage values as described in the Historical Resources By-law, 55/2014 (consolidated update July 13, 2016): (a) Built in 1905 with several pre-World War I additions, the Manitoba Club was an important facility locating on one of the City’s early signature thoroughfares, Broadway; (b) It is associated with the Manitoba Club, Western Canada’s oldest private clubs, whose member role includes some of the City and region’s most influential citizens; (c) It is an excellent example of the Neo-Classical or Classical Revival style and was designed by local architect S. Frank Peters; (d) It is built of dark brick with stone accenting on a stone foundation, all typical of the era; (e) It is a conspicuous building within the downtown; and (f) The building’s exterior has suffered little alteration. 194 BROADWAY – MANITOBA CLUB One of Winnipeg’s earliest and most exclusive residential districts was known as the Hudson’s Bay Reserve, so named because of its long association with the fur trading company. This large block of land, 188 hectares, near Upper Fort Garry was granted to the company under the terms of the surrender of the Company’s land rights in Western Canada (Rupert’s Land) to the Government of Canada. The Reserve included the land west of the Red River as far as Colony Creek (present-day Osborne Street) and from the Assiniboine River north to Notre Dame Avenue (Plate 1).

  • Citizen Budget Submission on Infrastructure
    If you would increase or decrease infrastructure investments, what would you change? Responses Focus on prevention. It may make sense to close some roads if we expanded some others. Move rail lines out of Winnipeg and increase population density, encourage public transit I would invest more in developing Manitoba infrastructure, roads, bridge's, etc. I would employee more workers that have been reliant on EIA and assign them a mentor for specific projects. This would assist them in getting out of EIA and into the workforce. Leave it as is. The rapid transit is a billion dollar mistake. It should have never been approved. That money would be better invested in fixing areas in the city with a crumbling infrastructure. More interchanges across the province, less gravel shoulders on highways. increased spending on infrastructure leads to more jobs, better quality of life. Lets face it our roads and infrastructure are in a poor state. Re-directing funds allocated for new projects/development into maintaining and improving existing infrastructure is crucial at this point. Change in how the province obtain private contractors' services. There are a lot of waste in infrastructure. For example, a road that was just repaired last year, they dug up again and put a substandard patch, which makes driving crazy. No funding until we can afford it. Make highway 75 a real highway that isn't being torn up and re done every summer. Get it done right and if it has to be re done the next summer go after the company performing the shoddy work.
