mcdougall centre

During my historical tour I came across this building. Today it is the McDougall Centre which is the southern headquarters of the Alberta Provincial Government. It's history began in 1907 as the Calgary Normal School, one of three training colleges used by the province until the University of Alberta took over this role in 1946
The far left picture was taken in the back of the building and the steps are part of a fountain. The middle pic is the front of the building and the one on the right is a lovely flower display in the centre courtyard area
Great collage of some striking architecture.
