  Now called Ashe street.

• Niall McAuley said:

  StreetView today.

• Niall McAuley said:

  The NIAH lists the red-brick corner building noted above (37 Ashe Street) as 1896, so that's an earliest date. It could be a little later, as the OS 25" surveyed in 1898 does not show this building (with the corner cut at an angle for a doorway).

• Niall McAuley said:

  The YMCA building is from 1861, no help.

  I'd so love to see NLI on Historypin - imagine this image overlayed on Google Streetview to create a Then & Now

Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) Building

from Galt Museum & Archives on The Commons

  In just 5 days in March 1910, $57,000 was raised for the construction of this building. The total cost would be $70,000.

  Wow what happened to this beauty and why dose it no longer stand?!

• Galt Museum & Archives on The Commons said:

  Hi Cody, though a beautiful building, it (and the YMCA organization) certainly had their share of problems. The building was taken over by the city in 1917 when the YMCA had difficulty paying their bills (Lethbridge and western Canada went into a recession in 1913 following the real estate bust and this was exacerbated by the First World War). The YMCA was able to get back the building in the 1920s. But by the 1960s the building was considered much too small. For example, the swimming pool was located in the basement of the building and was considered grossly insufficient by the 1960s. In the 1960s the YMCA entered a new fundraising phase and was able to build the location now on Stafford Drive. This older building was knocked down not long after the move to the new location.
