     History
    Built in 1898 along with numerous other buildings, the Ogilvie Flour Mill had numerous expansions until its closing in 1989. Ogilvie stood the numerous economic hardships of Winnipeg but could not survive a 1997 arson that claimed most of the building.

    This Building has been demolished in 2005.
