Originally the Manitoba Agricultural College when it was built in 1912, it is now the Administration Building for the University. Its central location, symetrical facades and strong visual lines make it the focus of the campus. From a European perspective, it is quite an unusual building with the central cupola design remisicent of details from British victorian prison design.
