A Brandon building that is nearing its 100th anniversary is among the historically significant structures that the Manitoba Historical Society has deemed the province’s most endangered for 2026.
The Manitoba Government Display Building, on the fair grounds just east of the Keystone Centre is among the top ten buildings for this list by the MHS. According to their website, the building was first constructed in 1927 and now suffers from a leaking roof and broken windows.
In the RM of Brenda-Waskada, the MHS pointed out the Ogilvie Milling Company/ Manitoba Pool wooden grain elevators from 1923 and 1927 are both in need of work to be preserved. The Ukrainian National Home, at Ruthenia, built in 1931 south of Riding Mountain National Park is another building that they describe as “designed for cultural‑educational societies and typically included an auditorium, stage, and meeting rooms” and is in need of preservation, perhaps by relocation to a museum.”
The oldest building on the top-ten list is the Upper Fort Garry Gate in Winnipeg, dating back to 1853.
According to their website, the MHS “tracks historically-significant buildings around our province that deserve to be preserved and better known.”
