This two-storey brick building at the northeast corner of Main Street South and First Street Southeast in Minnedosa, measuring 32 by 40 feet, was built in 1910 as a branch of the Union Bank of Canada. In 1925, when the bank merged with the Royal Bank of Canada, it continued as a bank branch until closing on 31 August 1946.
Its occupant at the time of 2021 and 2023 site visits was a tax preparation firm.
