Security Building

0722

Probably my favourite downtown building, seen on Monday evening, the Security Building at the corner of University & Pelissier. Designed by local architects Pennington & Boyde, the Security Building opened December 1, 1927.

The Security Building as it appeared as it neared completion in the fall of 1927
