Moose Jaw City Hall, Municipal heritage property in downtown Moose Jaw, Canada.
Description
Moose Jaw City Hall is a four-story stone building with a prominent clock tower topped by a dome located on Main Street North. It features classical architectural details with ornate stonework and now houses administrative offices, council chambers, and police services.
History
The structure was built between 1911 and 1914 under architect David Ewart's direction and initially served as a federal government building and post office. Its completion marked an important moment in Moose Jaw's development during a time of economic growth.
Culture
The building displays Edwardian Classical features with its stone facade and ornate details that shaped local early 20th-century architecture. Its design reflects how important Moose Jaw had become as a regional commercial center during that era.
Practical
The building is accessible during standard government business hours if you wish to view the public spaces and architecture. It sits in the downtown core on Main Street, making it easy to locate and visit alongside other nearby shops and services.
Did you know?
The structure was built from Tyndall Stone, a distinctive material containing fossil fragments visible in the stone surfaces. This locally sourced stone makes the city hall an uncommon example of regional building materials employed during its construction.
