Kelly Ramsey Building

Not long after Kelly's death Ramsey bought the building from his widow in 1926 for $100,000.

Police determined it was caused by arson and on April 2 a man was arrested for the fire.

[2] In September 2009, the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta ordered a judicial sale of the building due to foreclosure for $3 million, down from its previous price of $10 million.

[6][7][8] The tower was completed in late 2016 and opened on October 13, 2016, with the original facade incorporated into the new building.

The Kelly Block was done in dark brick and the Ramsey Building had a stone facade, three-part windows, and a smaller cornice.
