In 1911, when the Government of Manitoba decided to erect a new Legislative Building.

The neoclassical, Beaux-Arts-style building was completed in 1920 along with its famed Golden Boy, a gold covered bronze statue based on the style of the Roman god Mercury (Greek: Hermes) that sits at the top of the building's cupola. Standing at 77 metres (253 ft) tall, it was designed and built by Frank Worthington Simon (1862–1933) and Henry Boddington III, along with other masons and many skilled craftsmen. With the abolition of the Legislative Council in 1876, the third building has a single chamber.

This is near mint. In beautiful condition, and will be packed with care. Please see and enlarge photos and email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking.
