Historic Sites of Manitoba: Merchants Bank Building / Carberry News Express Building (34 Main Street, Carberry)In 1910, the Carberry News Express newspaper was founded when James L. Cowie arrived in town and united the two existing weeklies, the News and the Express. It occupied this building along Main Street in Carberry, built in the late 1890s. The two-storey part originally housed a branch of the Merchants Bank of Canada and the one-storey part had been a pool hall and barber shop. It is now a municipally-designated historic site (2007).
