McKay Avenue School, Historic brick school building in downtown Edmonton, Canada.

The McKay Avenue School features red brick walls, arched windows, and a distinct Richardsonian Romanesque architectural design spanning three floors and eight classrooms.

Built in 1904, the McKay Avenue School served as the first Legislative Assembly of Alberta between 1906 and 1907 before the current Legislature Building completion.

The Edmonton Public Schools Archives and Museum within the building displays educational artifacts and documents that represent the development of education in Alberta.

The school offers guided tours, educational programs for students, and rental spaces for events with capacities ranging from 26 to 250 people.

Despite being named after Dr. William MacKay, a Hudson's Bay Company physician, the building maintains its historical spelling with different capitalization.
