| Description |
Edmonton, Alberta Gariepy House Joseph Hormisdas Gariepy came to Edmonton in 1892, and through astute business practice and investment in land, became one of the town’s leading citizens. Built in 1902, his brick mansion is one of only a few structures remaining from the period before Edmonton was incorporated as a city. Gariepy, who was originally from Montreal, probably chose the old-fashioned Second Empire Style for his house because of its French origins. The original wrap-around verandah is now gone and a wing as large as the house has been added to the east, but it is still possible to recognize the French style. In particular, the mansard roof with through-the-eaves or wall dormers and the corner turret with porthole dormers have been preserved and evoke the original character of the house. Gariepy sold the house to John A. McDougall in 1923, who in turn sold it the following year to the Sisters of Charity of the Providence General Hospital. Since that time it has served as a convent and has been known as Rosary Hall. |
