Land Titles Building – Victoria Armoury

The Land Titles Building was a federal government office built in Edmonton in 1893.

It housed the "Crown Land, Timber and Registry Office for the District of Alberta in the North-West Territories".

The original design is a bisymmetrical fenestration pattern, which includes a jerkinshead roof with narrow, hipped dormers.

Subsequently, the building became the offices and laboratories of the Provincial Government Department of Health.
