Three of the City of Lethbridge’s Municipal Historic Resources were recently posted on the Alberta Register of Historic Places:
- the Annandale Residence;
- the Bell’s Welding Building; and
- the David James Whitney House.
The City has been collaborating with the Municipal Heritage Partnership Program for several years to identify, evaluate, and protect Lethbridge’s significant historic places. They have developed a Heritage Management Plan, established a Heritage Advisory Committee, and Downtown Lethbridge is an Accredited Alberta Main Street community.
These three new listings complement the properties already designated by the City. Congratulations Lethbridge!
