Old school philanthropy: A look at the Carnegie Library

Within a week we saw the physical dismantling of one our largest philanthropic corporations and the celebration of the 90th anniversary our largest philanthropic foundation.

For Winnipeg Downtown Places this week I thought I would go old-school and look at one of three library buildings funded by a great philanthropist who never even set foot in Manitoba.

The former Carnegie Library (City Archives Building) at 380 William Avenue.
