ST. BONIFACE CITY HALL This city hall was built in 1905 during a period of rapid growth in St. Boniface. The imposing classically-detailed building designed by Victor W. Horwood provided accommodations for the increasing number of services administered by the civic government. It serves as an enduring landmark and symbol of pride for this thriving community. One of a succession of large municipal buildings that appeared in Canadian towns and cities after 1900 in response to the growth of local government, it is an outstanding example of this building type in Western Canada.

HÔTEL DE VILLE DE SAINT BONIFACE Construit en 1905 par l'architecte Victor W. Horwood à un moment ou Saint-Boniface connaissait une expansion rapide, cet édifice d'aspect classique abritait les services de plus en plus nombreux de l'administration municipale. Il s'élève encore aujourd'hui tel un monument impérissable et symbolise la fierté des habitants de cette communauté prospère. Il fait partie d'une série d'imposants édifices municipaux construits au pays après 1900, dans la foulée de l'expansion des villes. Il en constitue un exemple remarquable dans l'Ouest canadien.
