Historic Sites of Manitoba: Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Rectory (81 Charles Street, Winnipeg)

Formerly located on Charles Street in Winnipeg, a 1½-storey wood frame and stone foundation building, measuring 18 feet by 24 feet and 15 feet by 18 feet, was built as a rectory for the Lutheran Church next door.

In 1912, the building along with the neighbouring Church and School were sold off at a public auction and it became a private residence owned by Benjamin Levin, but was later sold off. The building was demolished sometime after 1956 in conjunction with the Lord Selkirk Park housing development. The site is now part of the school grounds for David Livingstone School.
