Southam Building

The Southam Building was a ten-storey office tower located at 130 7th Avenue Southwest in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

The Montreal architectural firm Brown and Vallance was hired to design a new building for the site, which would serve as the offices for the newspaper.

Built with terra cotta, tawny brick, and sandstone, the Southam was one of a select number of gothic revival buildings in Calgary.

Many of the gargoyles were saved when the building was demolished and today can be been on the exterior walls of the Alberta Hotel and the interior of the Calgary Telus Convention Centre.

The primary original tenant was the Herald, but offices were also occupied by dentists, physicians, and on the top floor, the radio station CFAC.
