THE BUILDING

This character building located at the corner on McDermot Street situated between Arthur Street and King Street, is an important part of the Exchange District. Completed in 1899 was built by R.J. Whitla for his expanding dry goods business. Two storeys were added to the original five in 1904. With its clear and simple geometric lines, the structure is Richardsonian- Romanesque in style. A plaque is mounted on the northeast corner of the building, which is a municipally-designated historic site. THE AREA With a great mix of character buildings and modern architecture, The Exchange District is one of Winnipeg’s trendiest neighbourhoods. A short stroll from 70 Arthur Street are local restaurants, boutique shops, live music venues, art galleries, as well Old Market Square. An area like no where else – surrounded by chefs, musicians, artists designers and entrepreneurs, visited by tourists and locals alike, the Exchange District has been the home to many creative and inspiring Winnipeggers.
