Description
|
This
three-storey hotel building that occupied three
lots on the corner of River Street in Moose Jaw
was built for local entrepreneur John Henry Kern
in 1903. The building originally had
an L-shaped configuration but was later adapted
to create a central light well. It was
clad in local red brick, manufactured by
Wellington White, and featured a regular
fenestrated pattern. On River Street it
had a replica two-storey wooden balcony.
In 2009 the heritage designation was removed
from the building in order to include the site
in a development plan that involved the
construction of a massive two square block
casino, hotel and sports multi-complex and the
redevelopment of the historic River Street.
Subsequently the hotel was demolished.
