Edmonton's First Post Office
Location
corner of 101 Street and 100 Avenue
Edmonton, Alberta T5J 0S1Canada
On this site stood the old Edmonton Post Office. When completed in 1910 it constituted the most impressive feature on the City’s developing sky-line. It was built of white stone from Tyndall, Manitoba, pressed brick trimmings and copper sheeted mansard roof.
The clock tower rose 40 metres above the ground and remained a familiar Edmonton landmark until it was dismantled and the building demolished in 1972.
