Alberta sanitarium?

Hey. Was googling old buildings and this old sanitarium from 1907 popped up. The site said it was built on third street. And dosen't say it has been demolished. Just wondering if anyone knows if this is still standing. http://www.epl.ca/...tions-detail?id=20

Hmm well third street in old Edmonton apparently is 130 street, kinda narrows it down in the city but that's still a lot buildings. Seems like it would of just been renovated into a house.

Cool, makes sense. That would be a sweet house. I need more places to explore. How about that big Epcor electrical building down by the river? I want in that big brick building with the stacks.

The epcor building is a no go unless you go in covertly, and in the dead of night. Be warned though. The grounds are patrolled by k9 security and the dogs can be pretty aggressive!

I'm going off this information but the third street it refers to could be different.

There was some mansions that where demo'ed on a road called Clifton PI NW. Its just across Groat Road from the Alberta Museum. Heres a flicker account that has pictures of them.

Seems like it was on 103rd St, between 100 Ave and Jasper. It appears to have been demolished but I've yet to be able to find out what year. I've also seen the building listed as a WYCA in later photographs.
