Historic Places SASKATOON Register of HISTORIC PLACES 1 y DISCOVER. EXPLORE. CELEBRATE. The Saskatoon area has been inhabited for at least 8,000 years. Buffalo kill sites, teepee rings, and medicine wheels can still be seen in the area today, and form an important link with our history and the indigenous peoples of this province. Saskatoon has changed dramatically since it was founded by the temperance colonists in the spring of 1883. From a small collection of sod shacks on the east bank of the South Saskatchewan River, Saskatoon has grown to be the largest city in Saskatchewan with a rich and varied heritage. 2 y TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction. 7-8 Central Business District 1 Arthur Cook Building . 9 2 Bank of Montreal ...................................9 3 Birks Building .......................................10 4 Black Duck Freehouse . .10 5 Bottomley Block . 10 6 Buckwold Building . 11 7 Cambridge Court ................................... 11 8 Canada Building ....................................12 9 Canadian Pacific Railway Station. 12 10 Cenotaph . 12 11 Chubb Block . 13 12 Connaught Block . 13 13 Delta Bessborough Hotel .............................14 14 Drinkle Building No. 3 . .14 15 F.W.

  • St. Matthias' Anglican Church
    St.Matthias? Anglican Church The nave, looking toward the choir Photo: Bergeron Gagnon inc. Photo: Bergeron Gagnon inc. THE VALUE STATEMENT ST. MATTHIAS' ANGLICAN CHURCH CIVIC ADDRESS HERITAGE DESIGNATION RELIGIOUS DENOMINATION 10 Church Hill, Westmount Municipal - Category 1: Important Anglican (SPAIP) Provincial - None Federal - None OVERVIEW OF THE VALUE STATEMENT Historical Value The historical heritage value resides in the long history of the St. Matthias? Anglican Church with the development of Westmount. Its site has been continuously occupied by this religious denomination since 1874, when a mission chapel was established on a portion of the Forden Estate. The present church dates from 1912 and the parish hall from 1936. The association of the church with its immediate neighbourhood is embedded in the name chosen for the adjacent street, Church Hill. The sacrifice of the church membership during both World Wars is commemorated in the Memorial Chapel. Contextual Value The contextual heritage value resides in the church?s commanding presence on the corner of Cote St. Antoine and Church Hill. At the same time, the multiple entrances allow the complex to be easily accessed from both streets. Its institutional size and character make it a landmark within the surrounding residential fabric and connects it as well to the neighbouring institutions. Although its site is now almost entirely built up, the remaining church land is densely planted with shrubbery and mature trees. Architectural and Aesthetic Value The architectural and aesthetic heritage value resides in the skilful rendering of the neo-Gothic style, the excellent functional design, the ornamentation enhanced by the complex massing, the craftsmanship and the simple, noble materials used throughout both the exterior and interior of the complex.

  • The Night Operation on the Passchendaele Ridge, 2Nd December 1917
    Centre for First World War Studies A Moonlight Massacre: The Night Operation on the Passchendaele Ridge, 2nd December 1917 by Michael Stephen LoCicero Thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts & Law June 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The Third Battle of Ypres was officially terminated by Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig with the opening of the Battle of Cambrai on 20 November 1917. Nevertheless, a comparatively unknown set-piece attack – the only large-scale night operation carried out on the Flanders front during the campaign – was launched twelve days later on 2 December. This thesis, a necessary corrective to published campaign narratives of what has become popularly known as „Passchendaele‟, examines the course of events from the mid-November decision to sanction further offensive activity in the vicinity of Passchendaele village to the barren operational outcome that forced British GHQ to halt the attack within ten hours of Zero. A litany of unfortunate decisions and circumstances contributed to the profitless result.
