City Centre Mall, huh? Short-sighted money-grabbing city planners if they’re anything like the ones in the US. Acres and acres of woodland and farmland built up and paved over. And now many of those malls stand empty, and are graffiti-covered monuments to waste, greed and destruction.

I (used to) work right near there. I really dig all your pics of old Edmonton! Sure makes me wish we still had some of these buildings.

WHAAT!?!? I’m an Edmontonian and now I’m pissed that the city tore down that beauty to put up Meth Palace!

Google streetview of where it once stood.
The courthouse in the context of the rest of Downtown Edmonton in the 1950s.
1972
Interior
The much-larger brutalist courthouse that replaced it a few blocks over compared to the old one.
