Land Titles Building

Land Titles Building

The Land Titles Building is located at 311 21st Street East in the Central Business District of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The architectural firms of Storey and Van Egmond designed the building in the Romanesque Revival style. The building was constructed by Smith Brothers and Wilson in 1909. Additional expansions were done between 1910 and 1912. The building housed the land title office until 1959 when the office was transferred to the Law Courts Building. The provincial government stopped using the building when it was sold in 1994 [ [http://www.saskatoonheritage.ca/designated/land_titles.html Saskatoon Heritage Society - Designated Buildings - Land Titles Office ] ] . The building now houses the law offices of Brayford and Shapiro [ [http://www.saskatoon.ca/org/development/services/heritage_properties/land_titles_office.asp City of Saskatoon·Departments·Community Services·Leisure Services&Community Development ] ] .

The building was designated a Provincial Heritage Property in 1985.
